For an ensemble of 14 musicians<\/strong><\/p>\n

Commissioned by Studio for New Music Ensemble<\/strong><\/p>\n

Premiered on 26th January 2012 in the Rachmaninov hall of the Tcha\u00efkovsky of Moscow.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The work is an answer to a project that involved asking several composers to take a theme related to Russia as an inspiration for a series of exchanges with Western Europe. My admiration for russian musicians and writers boosted the modesty that led me to incline towards a cinematography character.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The work has the theme of the manufacturing, the creation, centered in the character of Boris, the young craftsman, a bell manufacturer from Andre\u00ef Tarkovsky’s film<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0Andre\u00ef Roublev<\/strong><\/a><\/span>(1966).<\/div>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Boriska embodies the symbol of all the risks that artists and artisans who face the world; his youth, as well as his faith and conviction, lead him, in spite of the ignorance he keeps hidden, to passionately throw himself into the creation\/manufacturing of the bell for the visit of the Zar.<\/span><\/p>\n

The structuring of \u201cAround the Bell\u201d corresponds to these stages, these internal states of mind that will give birth, in fine, to the work of art.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here, more than the very sound of the bell, what is given on to listen is its secret preparation, the formation of an internal hearing of a reality that will finally end up being produced.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is the beauty of the path that leads to the work, to the true object of the writing of a piece.<\/span><\/p>\n
