Cremisi (=crimson) written in October and first performed for the 35th Torino Film Festival in Italy.
It represents a segment of my life.
I had various experiences that made me what I am until now.
At this moment many people I love are in different parts of the world in different countries, cultures, atmospheres.
With this composition I wanted to express this situation, so I mixed various rhythms and different harmonies.
At the same time I put together the classical String Quintet with the ?exotic? sounds of Marimba and Vibraphone to give a further idea of different cultural realities that meet together.
Like the crimson colour itself, the composition has a strong red component (symbolising the love for your friends, for your family and the passion in life) with a bit of blue (expressing the sadness and melancholy due to the fact that nobody can remain next to you forever).
