LA RECENSIONE

Linearity is not for those who prefer the vertiginous bending and folding of sound over gracefulness.

Harmonic spirals, let go to their austere swinging.

Plucking tense strings and deriving impenetrable depths, dance turns, and textures: this is the arcane simplicity of Venetian Kapsberger.
