'Bel canto' and operatic reminiscences are present in all the compositions included on this CD. These works, in the wake of the melodic technicality that was typical of the nineteenth-century Italian clarinet school, give the virtuoso Giovanni Punzi (first solo clarinet of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Copenaghen) the chance to offer us a broad range of bravura displays. The CD is a world premiere by Italian composers that with these 'living room' fantasies are protagonists of the fervent musical life that underwent the powerful influence of the Italian melodrama that between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries will hold the on piccolo the small clarinet (for the duet from La Sonnambula by Vincenzo Bellini).
