Land of Angles

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)
