A CD that includes four great works by Franco Cesarini performed by the Civica Filarmonica di Lugano under the direction of the Maestro. Passacaglia and Fugue in C-minor BWV 582 In Franco CesariniÂ’s arrangement for large wind orchestra, the particularly careful interpretation of the original piece enables him to exploit all the sound colors at his disposal, and in this sumptuous guise Bach's work also takes on a grandiose dimension, albeittinged with late-Romanticism. A masterpiece by Johann Sebastian Bach superbly arranged for wind orchestra. Sinfonietta No. 3 “Zwölfmalgreien Sketchesâ€, Op. 56 In composing the Sinfonietta No. 3 , Franco Cesarini was inspired by the history of the municipality of Zwölfmalgreien, made up of various towns, villages and scattered districts which were incorporated to the City of Bolzano (Italy) over one hundred years ago. The peculiarity of these places, different from each other, but all characterized by rare beauty, have contributed to create this 3-mouvement work (City Life, Mountain Shadows and Classic Wineyards), which translates into music the activities of the villages, the winter days and the lively atmosphere in the wine regions. A perfect trip to this wonderful part of Italy! Suite Siciliana, Op. 57b The Suite Siciliana, a 7-movement piece - Intrada , Pavana, Gavotta, Barcarola , Tambourin , Sicilianaand Tarantella - is characterised by contrasting rhythms and tempo and consists of these 7 dances. The musical form, typical of the Baroque period, refers to some traditional expressions of art from the land of Sicily: ranging from the rich architecture of the Sicilian Baroque to the colorful majolica ceramics and the characteristic puppets, the “pupiâ€, which narrate a secular tradition. A full immersion into ancient traditions of this beautiful island! Symphony No. 3 “Urban Landscapesâ€, Op. 55 Fascinated by the beauty of Chicago, Franco Cesarini has translated his emotions into music: this is how was born Symphony No. 3 “Urban Landscapes†, a musical portrait of this metropolis overlooking Lake Michigan. The composition is divided into three movements - The Wrigley Building from Dawn to Noon , Blue Silhouette and Cloud Gate - which by sharing the same thematic material arranged in cyclical form, strengthen the overall cohesion of the piece. Symphony No. 3 “Urban Landscapesâ€, a sumptuous musical portrait of the “Windy Cityâ€. Civica Filarmonica di Lugano Since its foundation in 1830, Civica Filarmonica di Lugano has performed at diverging events, varying from large gatherings to international jury performances. The Civica Filarmonica di Lugano is one of SwitzerlandÂ’s oldest and most prestigious music societies and consists of approximately 70 musicians.The Civica Filarmonica gives about 20 concerts a year, both at the city's concert halls and the Piazza della Riforma, the square in Lugano that.

Durin g his experience as a band conductor and teacher of wind orchestra conducting at university, Franco Cesarini has dealt with the topic of warm-ups very frequently. Throughout these long years of conducting he has had the opportunity to try many existing methods, evaluating their advantages and disadvantages. After a long time, he has decided to compile a collection of chorales for warm-ups, which are organized according to the criteria that he considers most effective. While working on his60 Warm-up Chorales for Concert Band, Franco Cesarini has always borne in mind that amateur musicians play for pleasure. He feels that it is extremely important that they have satisfaction at every moment of the rehearsal and not to start the rehearsal with needless “punishing†exercises. Nobody is really motivated to start playing with scales, long notes, or tricky rhythmical exercises. There is often a distinguished absentee in band rehearsals, namely music itself! Although this publication does not foresee a specific tempo for the chorales, they should often be performed rather slowly but without dragging. Dynamics are not indicated, so that the conductor has the opportunity to draw the attention of the musicians to his gestures and to make them react according to his indications. Timpani and bell parts have been added with the aim of not leaving the percussionists completely inactive during the warm-up phase, but can also be omitted. The chorales are written in four parts (SATB) and are also playable in smaller groups. The four voices can be played in different combinations of woodwinds or brass quartets or in mixed combinations. The collection includes ten chorales for the following keys: D flat major, A flat major, E flat major, B flat major, F major and C major. With his 60 Warm-up Chorales Franco Cesarini would like to convey the message to play the chorales in a musical way, thus raising the musicians’awareness of phrasing, the right interpretation of cadences, rubato and agogic. Above all, never do anything withoutputting the musical aspect in the foreground.

A superb recording of five pieces for double wind quintet composed by Franco Cesarini. Suite Siciliana is a true tribute to this beautiful island, a piece composed by seven dances in the musical form typical of the baroque period. Divertimento, an early work of Franco Cesarini, illustrates the composer's love of popular song. A piece characterised by skillful instrumentation and meticulous attention to balance and form. Le Cortège du Roi Renaud is a suite in five parts based on tales that originate in southern European folk songs dating back as far as the 16th century. Pastorale de Provence, a suite in four movements, was written by Franco Cesarini in memory of the great Provençal composer Darius Milhaud. As the title says, Greek Folk Dances is entirely in the sign of Greek dances starting with a kalamatianos, followed by a zeibekiko. The piece ends with a hasapiko. A perfect mix of new and less new repertoire, perfectly composed and arranged for double wind quintet by Franco Cesarini and beautifully performed by the Rovereto Wind Ensemble!

Thi s overture, called Sinfonia, is without doubt one of the best original works for concert band to emerge from the 19th century. It is characterised by its fluid spontaneity as well as its rich texture. This arrangement off ers bands the opportunity to perform a work of high artistic value, which otherwise would be forgotten. Deze ouverture met de titel Sinfonia is zonder twijfel een van de beste oorspronkelijke 19e-eeuwse werken voor blaasorkest. De componist Ponchielli werkte jarenlang als dirigent in Cremona en Piacenza (waar hij een blaasorkest leidde). Zijn oeuvre, dat wordt bewaard in de Nationale Bibliotheek in Cremona, omvat ongeveer 150 originele partituren, waaronder composities en fantasieen die zijn gebaseerd op lyrische opera's van belangrijke componisten uit zijn tijd. De Sinfonia per banda uit 1872 is een volwassen werk waarin het grote vakmanschap van Ponchielli goed tot zijn recht komt. Het wordt gekenmerkt door een vloeiende spontaniteit en rijke textuur, enzoals gezegd is het een van Ponchielli's fraaiste werken voor blaasinstrumenten. Het originele manuscript was geschreven voor de volgende bezetting: Ab-klarinet, Eb-klarinet, Bb-klarinetten 1-2-3, Eb-bugel, Bb-cornetten 1-2, flugelhorn 1-2, Eb-genis/hoorns 1-2-3, Bb-trompetten 1-2-3, Eb-bastrompet, trombones 1-2-3, Bb-basbugel, Bb-tenorhoorn, 'pelittone' (basinstrument), kleine trom, grote trom en pauken. Deze bewerking geeft orkesten de mogelijkheid om een werk van een hoog artistiek niveau uit te voeren dat anders in vergetelheid zou raken. Diese mit Sinfonia betitelte Ouvertüre ist zweifellos eines der besten originalen Werke für Blasorchester aus dem 19. Jahrhundert. Sie ist gepragt von flüssiger Spontaneitat und Einfallsreichtum. Diese Bearbeitung von Franco Cesarini bietet modernen Blasorchestern die Chance, ein Werk von hohem künstlerischem Wert aufzuführen, das sonst in Vergessenheit geraten ware. Cette ouverture du compositeur italien Amilcare Ponchielli (1834-1886) est une des oeuvres majeures du repertoire pour Orchestre a Vent du XIXe siecle. Sinfonia per Banda (Ouverture pour Orchestre a Vent - 1872), oeuvre de maturite, revele l'immense talent du compositeur. Elle se caracterise par un style fluide et spontane, et une texture riche. En readaptant cette oeuvre, Franco Cesarini offre aux Orchestres a Vent d'aujourd'hui l'opportunite de faire revivre une composition quelque peu oubliee.Questa sinfonia e indubbiamente una delle migliori opere originali per banda che si siano tramandate dal XIX secolo. Essa si sviluppa con scorrevole spontaneita e ricchezza d'invenzione ed e una delle migliori opere per fiati di Ponchielli. L'arrangiamento di Franco Cesarini ha l'obiettivo di restituire alle orchestre di fiati contemporanee un'opera di notevole pregio artistico, altrimenti destinata ad essere dimenticata.

Brigh t Dawn Overture was commissioned to Franco Cesarini by the Swiss Band Association as part of a project for the renewal and expansion of the artistic repertoire. “There was never a night or a problem that could defeat sunrise or hope.â€. This sentence by the English philosopher Bernard Williamsinspired Franco Cesarini in composing this overture. In fact, even the darkest night is always followed by the sunrise and metaphorically, in every moment of difficulty, man clings to the hope of a better future. Bright Dawn Overture is written in the classic form of an Italian overture (fast-slow-fast). It is intended as a hymn of hope of recovery after a period of great difficulty. A single theme characterizes the composition, passing through the various registers and presents itself in new forms, while constantly being transformed. In the central part the theme takes on an almost mystical character, while in the finale it presents itself in a heroic guise and the composition concludes with a gesture of decisive optimism. A piece accessible to most concert bands, perfect as an opening work!
