Telling the human dualism between peace and conflict, to the tune of classical music: the Cagliari Conservatory presents the new series of concerts by its teachers , entitled " War and Peace ". Beginning on March 11th with the flute and piano duo of Riccardo Ghiani and Francesca Carta , entitled " Exploring between 1700 and 1900 ", the event will continue until October 14th with another thirteen events . The next of these will be " Sacred Sound " on Wednesday the 18th at 7 pm , in the Oratory of the Santissimo Crocifisso on Via San Giacomo .
A performance entirely dedicated to the Armenian Georges Ivanovič Gurdjieff , an expert in oriental dance and musician, but also a philosopher and mystic who built bridges between various forms of spirituality, whose compositions remain a sacred relic for enthusiasts of the genre, not written by him but dictated to his friend the pianist Thomas de Hartmann .
The pacifist and universalist message of the Caucasian thinker will thus become central in " Sacred Sound ", with the performance of the pieces entrusted to the Karrk'y Ensemble , a group made up of Mario Frezzato (oboe and English horn), Enrico Silvestri (clarinet and bass clarinet), Gabriele Marangoni (accordion and harmonium), Francesca Cavallo (harp) and Francesco Ciminiello (vibraphone and percussion).
With the subtitle " War is over if you want it, " which cites the famous "Happy Xmas" by John Lennon and Yoko Ono, "War and Peace" is defined as an invitation to choose peace, to be cultivated through thought, art, and listening . A discourse that will continue in the subsequent meetings in April—all held at the Conservatory —with " Russia and France " by Maurizio Moretti and Francesco Pasqualotto on Wednesday the 1st at 7 p.m. , followed on April 22nd at the same time by " Motus Clavium " by Livia Sandra Frau and Daniele Ledda , and then on the 29th at 4 p.m. by " For Philip Gouston ," which will instead see Alessandra Giura Longo , Silvia Belfiore , and once again Ciminiello on stage.
