Description
Diego Conti, violinist and contemporary composer, has composed these new string quartets, a genre that in the history of chamber music has seen the signatures of the most illustrious geniuses. It takes courage, perhaps a bit of unconsciousness and, above all, an unshakable faith in a musical language that can still say something new in this uncertain and unstable age. The Officina Musicale quartet, a historical group specialising in repertoires ranging from classicism to contemporary music, is the interpreter of this first recording in which the quartet, considered amongst the most abstract musical forms - like the still life for the painter - becomes a kind of diagnosis of the loss of identity of our time, in which 'lyricism' remains in distant worlds, between ruins, shadows and lunar landscapes.
