About the Work (approx. duration 2:50 mins.)
Land of Angels represents the uncertainty of the time in which it was written.
Solo passages, dynamics dominated by PP and P and many moments of silence. Its sound is intended to immerse us in great introspection at the same time that we enter a paradise, a world reigned by angels.
This work was born from an international initiative that brought together two composers. The challenge posed was for a composer to write the text for another to compose a work and vice versa. In this way, two twin works are obtained and it is possible to calm the isolation of compositional activity to create a brotherhood.
About the version for female choir
This version SSAA is dedicated to my friend Angelina Nicolaidou and her choir Cantus Novus Femina. Angelina was a great friend and promoter of my music and the career of many musicians. She lit the way and created connections by driving festivals and being a part of many of them. She was a person with whom I could talk openly and had a way of thinking that was charged with love and energy.
Lyrics
Far Away in the mystery of the skies,
A secret is waiting for us
It's the calm
And our angel
With her eternal pace
There is a land
where you can fly over a spring
Of beauty and of love
And it's soft
And clear
Like a real dream
Will you come with me?
(Giulio de Carlo &
Santiago Veros)
