Bellini / Donizetti / Brownlee - Allegro io son - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the eruption of Romanticism was not only a disruptive element which was capable of distorting the aesthetic and conceptual canons of the music of the time but it also brought about a series of noteworthy technical improvements in the organological sector. Without this change a number of instruments could not have expressed what was requested by composers and performers involved in this new cultural and artistic revolution - a revolution that, within a few decades, was able to build new cathedrals on the ruins of European Baroque. This record is a tribute to the extraordinary adventure of the flute through the nineteenth century, which is when this instrument increasingly assumed a stylistically independent connotation, which allowed it to become part of that group of musical instruments (such as the violin and the piano) which appealed to the cultured and well-off middle classes. This was in particular due to it's capacity to InchchallengeInch the human voice, the lyrical singing, reviving, through transcription, the famous lyrical works, the arias, well known and loved by both the aristocratic class and the humblest people alike. The choice of these compositions, therefore, focuses on the InchbelcantoInch repertoire revised in light of the potential of the transverse flute.

The tracklist includes the presence of an A side dedicated to the classical guitar with the songs Clinker and Rebound (working names) and a B side, dedicated to the electric guitar, with the songs Insenature and Sostegni (working names). The idea of ?making the vinyl object also the subject of musical writing was central to the conception of the project and sees it as the protagonist beyond the mere means of fixation of the work.
