Domenico Mirco's composition incorporates a theme and variation section into this multi-thematic fantasy based on Vincenzo Bellini's tragedia lirica opera of 1831. The five melodies that Mirco extracts from Norma appear in their original operatic order and are mostly related to the melodies of its main character, Norma. Mirco contributes his own material in transition sections between the Bellini operatic melodies. This challenging arrangement is edited by Diane Barger.

Pietro Tonassi borrows two melodies from Act 2, Scene 9 of Vincenzo Bellini's opera Il Pirata to create his multi-thematic fantasy for clarinet and piano. For the majority of the work, the clarinet depicts the role of Gualtiero while the piano provides the orchestral accompaniment as heard in Bellini's opera semiseria of 1827. The two arias are manipulated in creative and challenging ways throughout the introduction, Adagio cavatina, cadenza, theme and variations, finale and coda sections.

Eight melodies from Vincenzo Bellini's 1831 tragedia lirica opera Norma are used to create this virtuosic fantasy for clarinet and piano. Appearing out of sequence from their original order within the opera, the themes are presented with a high degree of embellishment in Antonio Spadina's operatic fantasy.
