“The viola is an instrument with a temper”
Luciano Berio
The Italian Cultural Institute presents a concert featuring artists Clara Belladone (viola) and Maurilio Cacciatore (live electronic music).
An instrument with a temper, and extreme even in its melancholy; a distinctive voice, like the melodic themes of the silicon repertoire.
In the works of the greatest Italian composers of contemporary music, the viola — an alien instrument by nature, controversial not by choice — bursts into a new exploration of sound and technique, finding in electroacoustic music a powerful interlocutor and companion.
