Stradivarius is pleased to announce the release of a CD by Andrea Rebaudengo, a pianist with an intense concert career and a particular predilection for music written over the last hundred years, featuring a performance of Finale by Paolo Castaldi (1930-2021), an Italian composer and essayist with a highly personal artistic path, ranked among the greatest contemporary Italian composers.Produced in collaboration with the Sentieri selvaggi cultural association, the album offers a live recording of the performance of Finale on December 1, 2008, in the presence of the composer, 35 years after the publication of the score, composed between 1971 and 1973.A monumental score lasting approximately 45 minutes and in four movements, the work marked a break with the spirit of the years in which it was published, revealing a new poetics on which the composer would later build much of his creative journey.The album thus offers a re-listen to an important body of twentieth-century piano composition, to rediscover a composer of fundamental importance for the musical languages of the second half of the twentieth century, then an isolated voice and today finally recognized.
