Beschreibung:
In 1941, I was invited by Viktor Vaszy to take on a choice double role, as a teacher of composition at the Cluj Conservatory as well as chorus master at the Cluj National Theatre. For me, this meant both an official state appointment and a substantial increase in my income. At the time I was over 35 years old and still without a permanent post. I took up my new duties at the end of the summer. My wife and I felt very much at home in Cluj but the most important for me was that along with my artistic obligations I found time to compose'. Unfortunately we do not know why Farkas wrote in 1992 a new version of the 'Three Burlesques' for clarinet quintet and for whom it was intended. The first movement 'Allegro', arc shaped, is more a succession of rhythmic patterns than melodies, with hectic ostinatos and staccato chords. In the middle of the movement, a short figure, like a second theme, brings a bit of calm and gentleness. The second movement, an expressive 'Moderato comodo' and the final 'Allegro' are shorter and also contrast with staccato chords.
