THE REVIEW
Until not so long ago, I didn't know who Teho Teardo was, or rather, I didn't know that the music, the soundtracks for films by Salvatores and Sorrentino were his: blissful ignorance.
A month ago, while waiting for my coiffeur, read hairstylist, to serve me, I read in a magazine about this work "Music for Wilder Mann", which, to say the least, was being praised here and there, up and down, this gentleman completely unknown to me (or so I thought).
Like Saint Thomas, I decided he deserved a listen, at least for all the nice words I had gulped down in that review.
Well, after my initial skepticism, of course it's an entirely instrumental work, I can confess that I was moved and found myself in a world of fairy tales... and with closed eyes, I saw the Bear-Men and Boar-Men those notes were telling us about: in practice, it was decided to "sonorize" a photographic book by Charles Freger, titled precisely "Wilder Mann"... and what does it take!
Strings and guitars, artists with resounding names: Balanescu Quartet, Julia Kent, Erik Friedlander and Martina Bertoni, along with the rightly acclaimed Teho Teardo.
