Eugenio Colombo's unique Septet sets four instrumentalists against three operatic soprano voices.
His music, which is inspired by two Mediterranean
myths - Judith of the Bible, and the coming home of Ulysses - blends echoes of
the Italian vocal music tradition with tempos and cadences of the East
Mediterranean area, from the Balkans through the Middle East; and includes
free improvisation to great dramatic effect.
Another triumph of the Italian new music scene.
The total time is 67'47 (Notes by Francesco Martinelli).
