LIFE - Roberto Jonata

INFINITY

€ 18,00

“Infinity” is the title of the new cd by the pianist, Roberto Jonata. 12 new tracks for piano solo, born from an introspective journey of the artist, that dedicates the entire work to the universal concept and never-ending message of music. “I tell the story of a man that looks at the horizon and observes with his eyes closed, imagining the infinity over the thin line that separates the sky from the earth. Every thought that comes back, can be described by music, transforming itself in a undeletable track that links passed to present, and the present to the future. Music becomes a pure, infinite expression of a physical and metaphysical universe of reality, and expression of our dreams”. A series of compositions in neoclassic flavour, rich of emotive density that moves constantly on the border line between passion and romanticism. Piano sounds influenced and coloured by “minimal music” that give a personal and unique style to Roberto Jonata’s piano playing and music.

PARMA - Hidden and Imaginary Landscapes

  "PARMA - Hidden and Imaginary Landscapes" parte dalla sorpresa suscitata dai panorami sonori riemersi a causa delle misure per il contrasto e il contenimento del virus Covid 19. All'improvviso abbiamo trovato ambienti sonori stravolti dalla mancanza di traffico umano. E' come se i luoghi fossero tornati a respirare, riappropriandosi dei loro rumori originari, della vita ad essi collegata, rimettendosi gli abiti comodi della loro storia. Un'occasione che non poteva essere persa: abbiamo subito cercato di catturare il respiro di posti frequentati, amati o significativi. Molti i tentativi e le elaborazioni, ma crediamo di avere trovato una sintesi, sia per mezzi utilizzati e sia per intenzione espressa. Abbiamo cercato di elaborare "qualcosa" che possa andare al di là del suono, incidendo la memoria, permettendone una proiezione che diventi connaturata agli stessi paesaggi, che non saranno mai più come prima. "PARMA - Hidden and Imaginary Landscapes" starts from the surprise aroused by the soundscapes re-emerged due to the measures to counter and contain the Covid 19 virus. Suddenly we found sonic environments disrupted by the lack of human traffic. It is as if the sites had returned to breathing, reappropriating their original noises, the life connected to them, putting back on the comfortable clothes of their history. This was an opportunity that could not be missed: we immediately tried to capture the breath of frequented, loved or significant places. There were many attempts and elaborations, but we believe we have found a synthesis, both for the means used and for the intention expressed. We have tried to elaborate "something" that can go beyond sound, engraving memory, allowing a projection that becomes connatural to the landscapes themselves, which will never be the same again.
