Riflessioni sul nome Amedeo Modigliani (Omaggio a Oscar Ghiglia) is divided in two movements that follow each other attacca. The first movement of the piece is named by the composer ...Il Pittore...sta...dipingendo... (...the painter...is...painting...). At the beginning of the piece we are introduced to the main motif of which the notes are reflected (Riflessioni) from the name of Amedeo Modigliani. A fantasy of timbre created by the composer is given a versatile interpretation by the possibilities of the guitar: tone material based on an octatonic scale is developed further through the means of arpeggios, pizzicatos, glissandos and high-pitched flageolets. The music is searching for direction in imitation of a painter searching for a subject as the theme Modigliani is repeated in different registers. The second movement is called Gli ucelli...della ombra... (Birds...of twilight...).
