Music that talks
I have always been incredibly fascinated by the music of
Antonio Vivaldi, but there are some of his works that
impress me in a special way, I would even say… magical.
Violino d’AMore is a result of experiences, impressions and
research that I have done over many years. I have always
thought that the only way to convey my passion to everyone
who listens to this CD is to choose the right pieces that are
unique for me and that bring me truly intense and sincere
emotions. The three concertos by Vivaldi for Signora Anna
Maria (RV393, RV248, RV387) are exactly the kind of
masterpieces that enter under the skin and remain there
forever... With this project I intended to pay tribute to the
figure of the woman, the active, beloved, talented woman...
the Muse.
My purpose, making this recording is also to contribute to
the creation, publication and presentation of new musical
works. I refer concretely to those that are in Baroque style. I
believe that it is a universal language, flexible and open to
new content, suitable to be reinserted in the circuit of
contemporary ideas, in a new breath.
The three composers presented in the project Violino
d'AMore are incredibly
talented and their work is
a strong proof, at
international level, that
confirms the
contemporaneity of the
baroque spirit expressed
in a new form addressed
to the present and to the future. The music of Federico
Maria Sardelli, Anton Martynov and Gianluca Bersanetti
already has a large and enthusiastic audience in France,
Italy, Holland, Finland, Greece, Russia, Bulgaria, Brazil, USA,
Australia and Turkey.
In a world where music is often left to chance and to
electronics, it is still possible to build original pieces
through musical means already consolidated over time. My
wish is to present quality new music that is listenable to,
has the audience’s attention and an emotional capacity that
makes it alive. I am convinced that ‘classical music’ should
not only be reserved for a public of sophisticated
specialists. Beware of the semantic and expressive changes
in the contemporary era, I believe in a musical concept that
is closer to our time, but does not give up the excellent
quality and coherence with our cultural heritage. Beautiful
music is what is liked instinctively, not necessarily related to
established patterns or prejudices.
As a musician, I only could be grateful for the honour and
pleasure that I am allowed to give the very first
performances of these three beautiful virtuoso works which
were dedicated to me. I have put all my heart into this
recording especially because I admire those who are able
to express themselves with talent, competence, poetry and
refinement. These pieces remind me how much beauty has
been conceived in the past and allow me to contribute to a
future in which it can still be a fundamental value.
