Work Overview
This piece is based on a 1929 poem by Antonia Pozzi, entitled 'Lampi'
Lampi
Stannotte un sussultante cielo
malato di nuvole nere
acuisce a sprazzi vividi
Il mio desiderio insonne
e lo fa duro e lucente
come una lama d'acciaio
The work examines the contrasts of sharp and blunt, light and dark, dream and wake, sickness and wellness, action and stasis, which form cornerstones in the poem. Sharp moments of action, attack and volume contrast with the acoustic orchestra with the the sensual sub tones of the Low Tone Orchestra, a fixed media part of multiple low frequency sine tones.
