{"product_id":"roberto-cacciapaglia-sonanze","title":"Roberto Cacciapaglia- Sonanze ( Vinyl )","description":"\u003cp\u003eRoberto Cacciapaglia is an Italian composer and pianist who started out in the fertile Milan avant-garde scene of the 1970s, which included Franco Battiato, Giusto Pio, Lino Capra Vaccina, Francesco Messina, among others. After studying at the conservatory, he worked at RAI's Studio of Musical Phonology - an electronic music laboratory similar to NDR\/WDR in Germany, GRM\/IRCAM in France or BBC Radiophonic Workshop.\r\n\r\nSonanze (Sonatas) is Cacciapaglia's debut album, a monumental work that was recorded over a two-year period and released in 1975 via seminal German label Die Kosmischen Kuriere (Ohr). While a \"sonata\" is traditionally performed by easily distinguishable instrumentalists (often soloist and accompaniment) and with repeated structural themes, Cacciapaglia flips this hierarchical form on it's head - blending harpsichord, strings, brass and analog synths to create ambient mini-soundtracks.\r\n\r\nAs the composer writes in the original sleeve notes, \"I am aware, unfortunately, that I am a few millennia late in how I would like music to be understood, which today I find diluted in it's primary powers, in an era that is destructive of essential values. Precisely for this reason, I want to search for it in depth and not on the surface, perhaps alternating the knob of a synthesizer with a marranzano (mouth harp).\"\r\n\r\nMixed in quadrophonic surround-sound under the auspices of Rolf-Ulrich Kaiser (celebrated producer of Tangerine Dream and Ash Ra Tempel), Sonanze remains on the fringe of Kosmische realms. Each movement explores hypnotic rhythms, intuitive arrangements, musique concrète techniques and a pure psychedelic awakening.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1. 1st Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e 2. 2nd Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e 3. 3rd Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e 4. 4th Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e 5. 5th Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e 6. 6th Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e 7. 7th Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e 8. 8th Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e 9. 9th Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e 10. 10th Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003eShop online 24\/7 at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57420896862543,"sku":"857661008476","price":4.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/8725\/2047\/files\/4378545-3271424.jpg?v=1775631112","url":"https:\/\/vibesvinyl.com\/products\/roberto-cacciapaglia-sonanze","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
