No division between ‘absolute’ and ‘applied’ music — that’s the way it has always been for Manuel de Sica.
Here we have the chance to explore the oeuvre of this contemporary Italian composer, best known for his contributions
to the world of film; Il giardino dei Finzi Contini, the last track on the release, won an Oscar nomination for
Best Original Score.
Much of De Sica’s work centres around the themes of pain and suffering, where music is invested with the power to help
alleviate the indifference that surrounds so much human grief — thus pieces such as In memoriam and Kojiki, the latter
of which was inspired by the bombing of Pearl Harbour — look to console and redeem. Also included on the set are the
Concerto for violin and strings, which pays homage to two of the most important influences on the composer’s style — Berg
and Bart�k — and Una breve vacanza, the leitmotif of the like-named film directed by De Sica’s father and, by the composer’s
own admission, one of his most beautiful melodies. Filmmusic, a three-part concertino with a Russian-inspired first
movement and swirling tarantella-based finale, completes the line-up.
Performing this music is the Filarmonica Arturo Toscanini, one of Italy’s most important symphony orchestras and which
has appeared under conductors of the calibre of Charles Dutoit, Lorin Maazel and Kurt Masur — to name but a few. The
ensemble provides the background to a wonderfully lively instrumental fantasy in which the harp, violin, viola and piano —
here astutely performed Floraleda Sacchi, Maristella Patuzzi, Anna Serova and Michelangelo Carbonara [No kidding!]
respectively — becomes the soloists in a fascinating, wide-reaching musical fabric. Flavio Emilio Scogna conducts.
