CAVERNA DELLE ROSE
Led by AimA Lichtblau and Diego Cinquegrana – accompanied by flautist Laura Manescalchi and baritone and percussionist Evor Ameisie (Camerata Mediolanense) – Caverna delle Rose presents itself as a liminal musical project, situated between abstraction, research and reinterpretation: a sonic bridge connecting ancient practices and contemporary sensibilities.
Poetic
Raooted in the contemplation of nature, traditional wisdom and the perennial principles that have traversed and will always traverse emerged civilizations, Caverna delle Rose translates into musical language those fundamental themes that René Guénon identified as the invariant core of the primordial Tradition: the distance between the contingent and the eternal – the essential –, cosmological symbolism and the search for lost unity.
Praxis
The conception of music as a “mystical” journey emphasizes the centrality of ecstatic experience, realized through a modal alchemy that weaves together heterogeneous sounds and instruments: voice, winds, strings, percussion, electronic sounds and natural noises, in a synthesis that evokes the harmony of opposites well-known to the hermetic tradition.
