Ambigua, Act I: "To Suggest Is to Dream"
Album GR 2014 on Vasilis Ginos label
Electronic and Classical (Ambient, Chillwave, Impressionist, Neo-Classical)
Ambigua is my take on post romantic classical music and an homage to early 20th century composers who dramatically influenced the art. They revolutionized music with a series of stylistic breakthroughs, staring with symbolism and Impressionism, that had a tremendous impact on the way we perceive harmony, melody and rhythm today. I revisit these utopian and ideal places with modern tools and aesthetics (and mindset) searching the point where musics meet, whether time is linear, and where in the great scheme of the universe is the artist's home. Ambigua consists of interpretations of selected pieces by composers Mahler, Debussy, Satie, Schoenberg, Bartok, Stravinsky and R. Strauss, mainly orchestral, preferably for string ensembles. Using mostly software synthesizers, I try to maintain the basic characteristics of ambiguity and intrinsic - extrinsic metaphor and the deepest, elusive and most tangible secrets of these compositions. It is conceived in three stages (Acts) that span chronologically to cover respective eras of the early 20th century.
