THE REVIEW
An extraordinary work by Blaszsczykowski. Composed in mature age, it is one of the most complex examples of late 1600s Baroque music. 40 minutes of orchestra and mandolin traversing the sound space through 4 movements. The allegro, the allegretto, the malcontento, and the adagio. It begins with the first movement, dominated by a lively and imaginative orchestra, which is heard with extreme pleasure. It is the longest movement, followed by the allegretto, made up of a series of musical interludes worthy of the best Stravinsky.
The malcontento is the shortest movement. About 7 minutes of sonic interweaving in an auditory orgasm that brings the listener to ecstasy. Everything concludes in the final minutes of the adagio, a wonderful example of slow and gentle Baroque. A work that joins the great classics of the 1500s, a beautiful composition by one of the greatest artists of his time. To discover and rediscover.
