Various Artists - Passacaglia Della Vita - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Passacaglia della Vita - an homage to the facets of life heartache, betrayal, seduction, impermanence, excitement, fun and laughter. At the center of the concept of the program is the eponymous song InchPassacaglia della VitaInch by Stefano Landi. While the stanzas depict a wide variety of life situations and repeatedly call for the enjoyment of life in accordance with the motto InchCarpe diem,Inch the refrain repeats the rather admonishing Inchbisogna morireInch - each of us dies. The reminder of death - or in a religious sense, the belief in redemption and life eternal - illustrates the finiteness of worldly joys and gives us a framework for life.
