Alkemia QuartetAbout
The Alkemia Quartet became immediately interested in the works of Giovanni Sollima. Though entirely notated, these pieces require some improvisation and both a modern and transverse freedom of interpretation, fully reflecting the technical and creative mastery of the composer, who melds music from John Dowland to J.S. Bach, Webern and Kurt
Cobain.
Sollima's 4 Strings starts from the roots, blending minimalistic Mediterranean atmospheres with Celtic, pop and rock music, always in the search of a new and appropriate sound.
This programme includes the world premiere recording of Africa, a work dated 1994 in the Sonzogno catalogue and about which Sollima said: “I found it dancing, in a tragic way. You dug it up again, and you have given it an awesome, new, fresh, sensual, dynamic and very personal reading.”
