Chiavi (keys), to open the sixteen chambers of this heterogenous and perspective suite lie within the touch of a finger: play, stop, skip. Welcome. North of Dublin, Ireland. Amoung the estranging convexity of the commons and the perfume of rose gardens, we are transported to an undefined point between the sea and the horizon. Izumitamagawa memory In the small Tokyo neighborhood of Izumitamagawa, a women sings to me the ancient theme Sakura by Taki Dentero, stories of antique splendor and harmonies consumed with time. The lunar echo of those days is woven into a delicate fabric amoung the chords. Rain on the Menam Bangok, Thailand. Caprice of a monsoon amidst the river and the outdoor markets. A Troia As Schliemann pursued his Troy, the mythical city destroyed by the Greeeks, feel free to search your own. Tre studi per un genocidio This triptych dedicated to the Native American originates from three themes conserved by the Bureau of American Ethnology Collection and depicted in the book Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee by Dee Brown, a chronicle history of their near extermination during the conquest of the West. Marchand du sèl I & II Marcel Duchamp and his sisters Yvonne and Magdalena assign notes with no designated metric value - drawn randomly from a hat - to the syllables of the definition of the word imprimer (to print) taken from a dictionary. The two pieces embrace and develop the provocation of these three casual musical themes. Après midi d’un fou The birth of an impromptu on the guitar. Petit abat-jour An antidote to lullabies written for my nephew Francesco. Nylon Dance Sequence of patterns created for movement, realized in a video produced by the “Accademia di Belle Arti of Carrara”, a true musical “cut-up” for the guitar. The key-stone between the traditional usage of the instrument and the suite that follows. Guitar: Exploded A programmatic voyage into the physical space of the guitar by means of the manipulation in real time within the parameters of a reverberation. At the end of the fourth movement the entrance of a second guitar, alternatively tuned to recall times long past, accompanies the last envelope into extinction. buy cd/mp3 on:
