The Greek composer Nickos Harizanos, born in 1969, was awarded a prize at the Harald Genzmer Composition Competition 2010 for this work. Written in free tonality and extremely rewarding for the clarinettist, this piece bridges the gap between composition and improvisation. This improvisational approach ('a tiny key') is the key to understand and interpret the work which becomes easily accessible through the improvisational air ('unlocks a heavy gate').
