Vals d'la Masca; Il racconto della Montagna; Sequenze sotterranee

The Alpinia Suite was commissioned and composed for the festival <> and is dedicated to my friend and colleague Elio Galvagno. It was performed for the first time on August 30, 2011, in the Church of San Giovanni in Saluzzo, by an ensemble of professional and student guitarists from all over Europe. This piece was written to commemorate the first ascent of mount Monviso, by William Mathews, Frederick Jacomb, Jean Baptiste Croz and Michel Croz, exactly 150 years before, on August 30, 1861.
The first movement is a small Waltz. I imagined a Masca (a sort of alpine pixie, a teasing sprite), dancing all around the house and playing tricks, mostly harmless and funny. The Masca is a legendary and very important character in the folklore of my valleys, and all rationally inexplicable events of everyday life are ascribed to her - such as objects that cannot be found anymore, holes in flour sacks, salt in sugar bowls...
The next two movements are a homage to the Mountains. The Tale is a sort of journal, a bright and peaceful chronicle of a hike uphill, in which the beauty of the place is highlighted by an easy harmony and a sweet melody. After this, Underground sequences evokes that same world in a darker and nocturnal way; the faster pace and the choice of repeated and varying patterns are meant to show the transformation of the former environment into something more complex and tormented. Here mountains are a metaphor of human life, warts and all: their sundrenched slopes and their green pasture grasslands, but also their icy and dangerous northern sides, which demand calm, training and caution.
(G. Signorile).

With Emperor, French composer Thierry Deleruyelle wanted to create a descriptive musical work depicting the life of Napoleon Bonaparte. The first movement represents the idiosyncrasies of this famous personality as well as his dramatic mood swings. The second movement is dedicated to his great love, Josephine Beauharnais. A contrasting third movement depicts Napoleon the fearless general and the countless battles he waged. A truly powerful work about one of histories truly powerful men.

Mit Emperor schuf der französische Komponist Thierry Deleruyelle ein deskriptives Werk nach dem Leben von Napoleon Bonaparte. Der erste Satz hebt die Charakterzüge des Kaisers von Frankreich hervor, wozu Heldenmut und Brillanz ebenso wie Schwermut gehören. Der zweite Satz ist seiner großen Liebe Josephine Beauharnais gewidmet und im Kontrast dazu der dritte Satz dem Feldherrn Napoleon und seinen zahlreichen Schlachten. Ein schillerndes Werk über eine große historische Figur!

Avec Emperor (L’Empereur), le compositeur français Thierry Deleruyelle signe une fresque musicale en trois tableaux, consacrée Napoléon Ier (1769-1821) qui fut Empereur des Français de 1804 1815. Le premier tableau, « l’Aigle », illustre deux facettes du caractère de l’Empereur : héro que et éblouissant lorsqu’il mène ses troupes la victoire, sombre et mélancolique dans la tourmente de l’histoire. Le deuxième mouvement est consacré Joséphine de Beauharnais, la grande et unique passion de Bonaparte, sa première épouse, son incomparable impératrice. La courbe mélodique est noble et élégante, l’orchestration riche en couleurs sonores. Le troisième et derniertableau - D’Austerlitz Waterloo - est un récit de batailles, de la grande victoire la chute définitive. Le climat musical est dominé par un esprit de conquête. Les rythmes soutenus de la caisse-claire symbolisent la chevauchée infernale de la cavalerie impériale. Nous suivons l’itinéraire militaire de l’un des hommes les plus célèbres et les plus controversés de l’histoire de France.

Con Emperor, Thierry Deleruyelle firma un affresco musicale dedicato a Napoleone. Seguiamo il destino militare e personale di Bonaparte. Il primo affresco, “l’Aigle”, illustra due aspetti del carattere dell’Imperatore: eroico quando conduce le sue truppe alla vittoria, malinconico nella tormenta della storia. Il secondo movimento è dedicato a Josephine di Beauharnais, la grande e unica passione di Napoleone. Il movimento finale - Da Austerlitz a Waterloo - è un racconto delle battaglie, delle grandi vittorie e della caduta definitiva.
