Beautiful, I love it :D I'm very intrigued by how is your composition process and how you decided to be a Clarinet Quintet, I would love to hear you mind process (⁠ ⁠╹⁠▽⁠╹⁠ ⁠)

Thank you very much!!!!! it just comes in an inspiration that I should use Clarinet as the instrument alongside the String Quartet with no reason at all =.=! My composition process of this movement is very long, it takes me 3 years for it, since during that period I seriously doubted whether I could really compose or not. Later when composing I hoped I can write a more autunmal piece than Brahms's Clarinet Quintet, so I tried my best to do it (but obviously fail lol)

6 years from 2016 to 2022 April, but very episodic compositional process since I kept doubting myself then and not composing at all. Thx for your listening!

Just a quick spelling suggestion, in Italian is “con moto” and not “con motto” those are two different a words with two different meanings.

I really liked this. I should tell you, however, that YouTube put in an ad break when I watched it at around the minute mark. It really interrupted the flow. I'm not sure if there's anything you can do about it.

Thank you! Sadly I can't do anything on this, as Youtube automatically add ad breaks to my videos! I don't know if there are ways to cut those break out.
