SOUNDTRACKS

ORGAN WARS

John Williams, among the greatest soundtrack composers, is for sure also one of the most refined contemporary orchestrators. Here now the challenge of shifting the pages of well-known movies such as Jaws, Close Encounters of the third kind, Memoirs of a Geisha, Schindler's List till actual cult movies of the cinema: Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back from the orchestra to an instrument like the organ.  And I underline he is not using an ordinary organ, but the grand organ of the Auditorium "Cesare Pollini", in the premises of Padua Music Conservatory. A really unique repertory, that allows to make the most of all the registers of this instrument, from pianissimo to the symphonic "tutti", considering that we chose to give room to John Williams’ various musical languages, from the most celebrative and epic to the more intimist and meditative, in order to please the taste of those who know the more blockbuster Williams, but also who know or wish to deepen the knowledge of a less known but nevertheless brilliant Williams.

THE CINEMA SHOW!

STRAVINSKIJ CHAMBER ORCHESTRA: Marco Tezza, conductor & piano solo. FEATURING SPECIAL GUESTS: Domenico Nordio, solo violin on Schindler's List; Mara Comellato, flute; Antonio Graziani, clarinet; Mirko Bellucco, trumpet; Benedetta Botter, voice; Graziano Zuin and Gino Schipillitti, guitars; Paolo Vidaich, percussions; Alessandro Piovan, drums.  The generations of composers who have grown both with and for the cinema, and who have ended up being completely identified to it or to certain film directors, can only confirm the need for a serious school where the principles of the art of composing can be given so that images may remain forever within music, within a melody, a timbre or a chord, and that they may instantly penetrate that moment on film. Writing for the cimema has also become a way to break up or reduce the 20th century waste, that was created by both contemporary composers and the public, by facing the problem that communication between the artist and the listener must be made easier, bearing in mind that the music being composed will within no time at any reach a very wide audience. This Cd is an impressive example of that: the music written by the gretest author of all time, such as Ennio Morricone, Henry Mancini, John Williams, Alan Menken, Alan Silvestri, Astor Piazzolla take us through the magic world of memorable stories and images.
