Davies's feeling for the potency and bravura of the clarinet goes back to works of the 1960s; his concerto for the instrument is predictably a big ranging piece in two linked movements. The first fast with a brief slowintroduction has the soloist in propulsive melodic flights slipping over into florid runs but it is a virtuoso piece for the orchestra especially for the marimba and pair of horns. The Adagio that follows is in the spare cold birdcall-riven style of other recent Davies slow movements exploiting first the clarinet's low register and then at its climax the instrument's high extremes. A cadenza leads to the coda where Davies introduces a Scots tune previously hinted at with which he brings the work to an end in F sharp major.Miniature score.

Un score en miniature d'une des oeuvres ultérieures de Nielsen. Intransigeant, néanmoins enrichissante, même Benny Goodman, traversé 'lignes' pour s'attaquer à ce masterpiecce. / Scores / Partition

This clarinet concerto was premiered in 1997 as part of the celebrations of the Year of Ninian one of the founding fathers of Christianity in Scotland. St Ninian the first bishop of Whithorn was believed to have arrived in Galloway in the south-west of the country in 397 nearly two centuries before St Columba landed on Iona. The three movements are based on three of the so-called Miracles of Ninian strange and evocative tales about the saint and his followers documented in a Latin poem written a few centuries after his death. As well as being a concerto the work is therefore also a collection of tone-paintings which give an impression of these ancient tales.
