The title of this solo piece, written for the former Rondino festival of Hegymagas and for the tireless performer of contemporary clarinet music, Csaba Klenyán, evokes the atmosphere of the Balaton highlands. The dramaturgy, moving from long, sustained notes to virtuosic runs, evokes the specific acoustics of the small church of Hegymagas. János Malina rightly compared this composition to the elation of Shakespeare's monologues.

''I wrote my solo clarinet piece Persistent Dreams in 1991 before my 'Opus 1' Lightshadow-trembling, inspired by Salvador Dal '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).

The piece is about observing the most diverse anxiety states in extreme degrees of emotional intensity, from slight distress up to acute panic attacks. What interests me here is not merely the musical realization of these phenomena, but grasping the energetic nature of those psycho-physical processes, emotions, reflexes, and proceedings. To this end, I'm seeking, at the clarinet myself, for an intimate sound world where expanded styles of playing in a flexible and permanently moving context appear. A very intensive music of the nerves, with a broad palette of psycho-physical emotions that, found in myself and my surroundings, are made audible. The title Psychogramm II has (as always) a subtitle: rettegos (fearful). In the order of increasingly emotional anxiety words, this stands for the highest level and means very great, profound anxiety, though in a grammatical form not in fact devitalizing the serious idea, but mitigating it a bit, not entirely without humor and somewhat childishly.

As a fan of bossa-novas from Antonio Carlos Jobim (with complex and moving harmonies), I have created my samba jazz in order to motivate students to work on typical rhythms of this musical style - Alain LOPEZ.
