Persistent dreams

Description

Clarinet — I wrote my solo clarinet piece Persistent Dreams in 1991 before my 'Opus 1' Lightshadow-trembling, inspired by Salvador Dalí's painting La persisténcia de la memória. The musical equivalent of the infamous melting clocks is like a convolvulus made of notes moving between various overtone systems, interrupted here and there by short chromatic outbreaks. Although it recurs in various forms, in its variations it portrays the immutability and persistence of time and memory.'' (Gergely Vajda)
