Notte: Solo Harp Nocturnal Works Of The 20th Century – Giuliano Marco Mattioli

This CD is a unique and captivating project that unites the harp’s expressive potential to a nocturnal dimension. The selection of works, carefully chosen over ten years, develops a narrative unfolding between darkness’ falling and deep night. The CD features a dialogue between the listener’s inner dimension and the external dimension of nature and the urban space. With elements typical for literature, visual art, psychodynamics, symbol, myth, archetype, dream, unconscious, silence, and projection, the music represents the unconscious in the most efficacious fashion, just as the dream. The choice of works to perform is based on both their compositional qualities and contrasting evocative features, providing a perfect blend of sublimation and expression. From twilight to slumber, this CD is an invitation to explore the inner world of our psyche, a journey to the night’s depths, and an encounter with the unknown.
