Andrea Battistoni, Leonora Armellini, Lodovico Armellini - Nighthawks - chamber works for flute, cello and piano (2026) [Hi-Res]

The musical project "Nighthawks," featuring Italian performers Andrea Battistoni, Leonora Armellini, and Lodovico Armellini, draws inspiration from Edward Hopper's iconic painting. The program explores themes of urban isolation and reflection through chamber works for flute, cello, and piano. The repertoire is centered around the world premiere of a commissioned piece by Carlo Galante, complemented by classical works from Bohuslav Martinů and Nino Rota. The performance masterfully interprets the visual contrast of light and shadow, translating the aesthetics of American realism into a multifaceted sonic dimension.
