Le silence dans le son / opus #4
A musical journey into Giacinto Scelsi’s (Piteli 1905 - Rome 1988) creative and philosophical world, through his piano music and a selection of writings and poetry. Live performance of his repertoire is mixed to audio recordings of excerpts taken from his written production. The project aims to give an engaging insight into the composer’s world, and is based on musical, biographical and archival research.
