Notes

Original compositions by Nicola Campogrande. Elena Casoli, guitars.

"If I were a computer, these Preludes would be my printer: a lot of work upstream, just one quick gesture to fill the sheet"
As Nicola Campogrande wrote, "the ambition of the collection is to draw a world. It is a postmodern world, in which one can stop to observe architectural details of the past and flashes of the present, in which one can listen to references to classical forms rethought with disenchanted cheerfulness, a world that I try to paint by giving myself very long working times and then distilling the result into pages that have the thrill of synthesis. If I were a computer, these Preludes would be my printer: a lot of work upstream, a single rapid gesture to fill the sheet."

Recorded by Elena Casoli on a superb 1846 Luis Panormo guitar and then, in a second version of the same Preludes, on a very American Taylor with metal strings and, again, on a seventeenth-century archlute, the CD also hosts 3 incredible remixes prepared by DJ Roger Rama, who transported Nicola Campogrande's music into the world of clubbing and DJ sets.
