Dreaming Cities: A Piano Trio (Classical Music Scores by Damon Ferrante) - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

Dreaming Cities is piano trio (violin, cello, piano) inspired by Italo Calvino's, "Invisible Cities". Its five, dynamic movements evoke the novel's floating, mirror, mechanical, and whimsical architecture. The sweep, pyrotechnics, fantasy, and lyricism of the trio's ideas glide, leap, and dance through the musical palindromes, catwalks, and microcosms of the score. The violin and cello parts are included. Reviews for Damon Ferrante's music: Tim Smith of "The Baltimore Sun" calls Ferrante's music "focused and colorful...with an unexpected, decidedly poetic touch." "If the tune has the elegance of traditional opera, the harmonization is very modern as the vocal lines climb and descend the melodic staircases that Ferrante has constructed for them." Geoffrey Himes, "The Baltimore City Paper" Mary MacCauley of "The Baltimore Sun" describes Ferrante's music as "ebullient and full of shifts of direction."
