Dario Savino Doronzo - Reimagining Aria (2023)

Paying homage to the past to dialogue with the present is the ambitious motive of the project. A metamorphosis that aims to transcend tradition towards contemporary perspectives and potential by projecting the notes towards an eclectic universe where there is no lack of research, continuity and emulation of the past.
The composer Daniele Sardone and the Re-imagine duo formed by Dario Doronzo on flugelhorn soprano and Pietro Gallo on piano, offer a wide-ranging repertoire that embraces new sound explorations in which classicism and modernity blend. A tribute to tradition expressed in the freshness of a current idiom, a continuous and consolidated dialogue between sounds, colours, stories and cultures, synergistically confluent in a music that finds the cornerstone of its knowledge in its reinterpretation.

The new compositions, like metaphors, are not simple rhetorical devices but an unprecedented paraphrase of the classical world. The musical ideas of the famous Baroque composers are reinterpreted but not betrayed, thanks to the ability to rethink the different musical structures by updating them, breaking them down and re-composing them as in a game of mirrors and cross-references, in a completely new guise that enhances their profound meaning . The sacredness of the classical tradition and its mitigated magniloquence find echoes of intimism illuminated by courageous artistic experimentation. The linear dimension of time moves between flash-backs and flash-forwards which transport the notes into a surreal dimension, into a Bauderailian doctrine of correspondences which creates a new and poetic artistic statute.
The project is enriched by the presence as a guest of Gabriele Mirabassi on clarinet.
