Composer/Series: Music for Harp Quartet
Description
No other instrument but the harp reminds us so strongly of inscrutable prehistories, remote civilizations and ancestral mythologies. Such an apodictic claim can be easily questioned. However, its opinable nature urges us to explore all the creative possibilities of the harp, which are embedded in this handful of new compositions for harp quartet. Here are seven original compositions, specifically commissioned and recorded for the first time ever. The new music is performed by the Adria Harp Quartet, an ensemble born and raised precisely with the intention of interpreting new compositions of the contemporary Italian music scene. These contemporary works utilise all means made available by the new musical language (electronic and interactive elements alongside the latest techniques devised for the harp), paths still unexplored, whilst taking advantage of the distinctive characteristics of this fascinating instrument.
