EUROPA SUITE live at Witold Lutosławski Concert Studio of Polish Radio Original composition by Matteo Ramon Arevalos Introduction by: Director of the Italian Cultural Institute of Warsaw Fabio Troisi Ambassador S.E. Luca Franchetti Pardo Translator Paolo Gesumunno Camilla Lopez - voice Vanni Montanari - flute Roberto Noferini - violin Donato D'Antonio - guitar Matteo Ramon Arevalos - piano and composition texts by Dante Alighieri, Tito Lucrezio Caro, William Shakespeare, Sofocle and Sicilo EUROPA SUITE musical project was created to give a message of solidarity to the peoples who are currently going through difficult times. The Arts, understood as a manifestation of the human being, open the doors to beauty, thought and feeling. The creative act is part of us, of our lives and whatever path or profession we choose, we have the possibility of bringing beauty with us, this engine, this luminous realization of the human. For this reason, in a broader sense, art can unite, generate enthusiasm and brotherhood among all peoples, without conflict, without deception. The musical composition EUROPA SUITE for voice (Camilla Lopez), flute (Vanni Montanari), violin (Roberto Noferini), guitar (Donato D'Antonio), piano (Matteo Ramon Arevalos) and electronic music specially created by Matteo Ramon Arevalos which is inspired to the mythological figure of Europa, the young Phoenician princess loved by Zeus. The name Europe refers to the area where the Hellenic civilization extended in ancient Greece. The composition brings together various forms of dance also linked by a common thread of the four elements, a common reference to all cosmogonies. The East and the West conceived a close connection between the human microcosm and the natural macrocosm, the life of the human species and the survival of the cosmos depended on the balance of the elements: the ordered universe, which arose from chaos, was governed by deified personifications of the four elements. The Europa Suite composition is divided into: Prologue, Air, Water, Earth, Fire and Epilogue. The Prologue is represented by a hypnotic sequence of gestures by Camilla Lopez with a musique concrete of low and strident iron sounds, subsequently developed with chords between piano and guitar that generate a pulsation then animated by the flute and the violin. The first movement, Aria, is an animated composition, like the beating of butterfly wings, with a text taken from Canto I of Dante Alighieri's Purgatorio: Dove l'umano Spirito si purga, e di sali al ciel becomes worthy. The second movement, Water, is divided into two movements, a slow and meditative movement for flute and guitar and prepared piano, and the fast finale generated by a Polish dance rhythm and a musical theme taken from an ancient Polish melody, with text taken from "De rerum natura" by Tito Lucrezio Caro, a reflection on the power of nature. The third movement, Earth, a reflective and at the same time alarming moment on man's relationship with nature, again with an excerpt from Lucretius' "De rerum natura": bodies all in their atoms then nature dissolves them again. The fourth movement, Fire, is divided into two movements, the first a song that leaks from a concrete musique of whispering human voices, which generates a sound effect of fire, as if the stratified voices, echoes of the past but also of the present were fire itself. With text taken from "The Tempest" by William Shakespeare, scene IV: our game is over, the immense earth and what it contains ... and like the fleeting fiction, now slowly vanishing, they will leave no trace. The second movement is preceded by the sung theme of the so-called Madness of Spain with a text by Sophocles - always revealing, time leads to light - which will be furiously concluded by a variation on the only instrumental theme also inspired by the unbridled rhythm of the Gopak, an ancient folk dance Ukraine. The Epilogue is a tribute to the civilization of ancient Greece, the Epitaph of Seikilos, a transcription of the Phrygian musical melody in eight measures, the oldest and most complete musical document ever found, a message that comes from antiquity, which can be an inspiration to us all: As long as you live, show yourself to the world, Do not grieve at all: life is short. Time finally takes its toll.
