Composer's
Note Second Meeting was
written in January 1992.
The first performance
took place in Stockholm
in February (Bengt
Rosengren, oboe and
Stefan Bojsten, piano).
The work belongs to a
planned series of
virtuoso duos,
ââ¬ÅmeetingsÃ
â¬Â. The first
one (from 1982) is
written for clarinet and
harpsichord. Formally,
Second Meeting is very
close to a familiar
ââ¬Åtheme and
variationsââ¬Â
category, although there
are seven themes, or
melodies, all quite
closely related. In the
autumn of the same year I
decided to write a
version of the piece for
oboe and a small
orchestra, trying to
remain reasonably
faithful to the original
(a la Ravel, perhaps).
The orchestral version is
called Mimo 1). Esa-Pekka
Salonen.
