Ensemble Cecilia
Vendrasco, flute; Mario Paladin, viola; Alessandra Trentin, harp. Works by Claude Debussy and by: S.
Alessandretti, E. Bozza, G. Cosmi, M. Khayami, L. Michielon, J. Pjetri, M.
Tournier. In
collaboration with: Conservatorio B. Marcello di Venezia, Conservatorio G.
Verdi di Milano, Accademia S. Cecilia di Roma. Figurative works by the students of thei Accademia
di Belle Arti di Venezia Homage to Debussy and Mallarmé, in
their respective birth anniversaries, the spectacle springs from a masterwork
of the French composer, the Sonata for flute, viola and harp (1915) -first
piece for this intrumentation with suave musical colours - giving rise to a
project that involves young composers and artists of prestigious Italian
schools (Accademia di S. Cecilia di Roma, Conservatorio di Venezia,
Conservatorio di Milano, Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia). It aims to
propose a new dimension of the performance through the synergy between
historical memory and crossed languages expressing the creativity of the
young generations. The performance of the Sonata is accompanied
by "Tre Spiriti" (The magician, The woman and The Beast), series of
sculptures of Federica Montesanto, reflecting Debussy's interest in archaic
and pagan cultures. Debussy's Syrinx is linked to Maya, installation of Ivana
Bukovac (Serbia), inspired to the concept of metamorphosis as alienation, other
Becoming, both shelter and prison. "Sguardo di statua" of Mehdi Khayami
(Iran) uses the same instrumentation as Debussy's Sonata: it suggests the sense
of demotivation and frustration of today's mankind, through a musical material
based on the microtonal intervals of fhe Iranian tradition. Sainte by Jozef Pjetri (Albania) for solo flute is inspired by
Mallarmé, and represents an inexorable gradual collapse of the compositional
elements; Un coup d’aile ivre, trio by Letizia Michielon, is drawn from Mallarmé's
sonnet "Le vierge, le vivace et le bel aujourd’hui". The swan,
symbol of the poet, is interpreted by the flute, whose performance takes
place inside a structure in form of wing ("Ombreggiatura d’ali")
created by Sara Speggiorin. dialoguing with the the space and the light by a language
that evokes the topos of the classical draping.. The piece for solo harp of Stefano
Alessandretti, "Dal fondo di un naufragio", inspired by the poem Un
coup de dés, is built around an unique essential phrase, with relevant
aleatory component. Also the duo for flute and harp "Cenotafio" of Gabriele Cosmi is connected to the mnestic
symoblist atmosphere through the far memories that appear as sound nebulas
and evoke a world without human presences; the video "To extend the
visibility" of Elio Martusciello, composed only by satellite images of
the Earth, is associated with this piece. |
