“Sacred Resonances” – Recital
New Programme “Sacred Resonances”
A Journey of the Soul in Twelve Musical Steps
This programme traces a journey of the soul, a spiritual and poetic traversal.
From the first light to shadow, from silence to transformation, from death to rebirth — each work is a sacred resonance, an echo of what transcends us and connects us.
ORIGINS
Liszt – Ave Maria, from Harmonies poétiques et religieuses
A suspended prayer, timeless.
The light gently rests, like a veil upon the soul.
The origin of the journey: in grace, peace, and surrender.
TOWARDS THE EARTH
Mozart – Fantasy in D minor
The spirit descends into matter.
Shadow and clarity intertwine, tragedy and tenderness coexist.
A wandering between worlds, like a half-awake dream.
TOWARDS THE WATER
Debussy – La Cathédrale engloutie
In the silence of the water sleeps a forgotten cathedral.
The sacred slowly rises to the surface.
A sonic memory, emerging from the depths.
PRESENTIMENT
Brahms – Intermezzo in F minor, 3rd Sonata
The heart speaks softly, on the edge of mourning.
A gentle lament, without cry, without drama.
The shadow begins to settle — yet with dignity.
PRAYER
Bach – Prelude in E-flat minor, Book I
A calm prayer, yet reaching toward the invisible.
Order and faith seek a profound harmony.
A distant light, still to be attained.
THE SHADOW
Mussorgsky – Catacombs, Cum mortuis in lingua mortua
Slow steps on stone.
Extinguished voices, a forgotten language.
One walks with the dead — and silence becomes sacred.
DEATH
Mussorgsky – Cum mortuis in lingua mortua
Bare, austere gravity, without tears.
The gaze rests on the end, without turning away.
The shadow opens like a door to eternity.
EMPTINESS
Arvo Pärt – Für Alina & Tomo Hirayama – Pietà
Everything recedes.
Only a thread of sound remains, a breath, a silent pain.
Emptiness becomes the matrix — silence, presence.
TRANSFORMATION
Brahms – Intermezzo in E-flat major, Op. 117 No. 1
A discreet warmth returns within the shadow.
The heart beats again, calmer, deeper.
A hand reaches toward life.
CELESTIAL SMILE
Bach – Prelude in E major, Book I
A weightless joy.
All is light, balance, gentle dance.
The sky smiles in the moment.
LOVE AND TENDERNESS
Liszt – Hymne de l’enfant à son réveil
A heart opens, pure, undefended.
Love is reborn, in wonder.
The child sees the world with eyes washed by the night.
LOVE AND STRENGTH
Liszt – Invocation
A prayer that becomes fire.
The soul hides no longer: it rises, it affirms.
Love ignites — living force, active light.
Bach, Mozart, Brahms, Liszt, Mussorgski, Debussy, Arvo Pärt, Tomo Hirayama
