Francesco Fournier Facio – Sound Of Light And Shadow (2013) {SACD ISO + FLAC 24bit/88,2kHz}

Francesco Fournier Facio was born in Rome. He have studies composition with Riccardo Panfli and has attended masterclasses led by composers Fabio Vacchi and Luca Lombardi. In June 2013 the Accademia Filarmonica Romana commissioned him a new piece for soprano and ensemble to be performed at its Music Festival Il Bosco di Eros, where it was world-premiered by the Imago Sonora Ensemble. In the same year he attended Luis Bacalov’s composition for film course at the Accademia Chigiana di Siena; as well as a composition masterclass at the Université de Montréal taught by Fabio Vacchi and Jean-Jacques Nattiez. Fournier also plays keyboards in two rock bands. Between 2011 and 2013 he wrote 7 nocturnes and 7 preludes, a selection of which is presented in this album.

I could write extensively about this album, describe the moments and circumstances that led me to compose these eleven pieces. I could explain the influences and motivations that drove me forward. But what is really significant is the fact that, for the past two years, each of these pieces has been like a page in a diary: written in one go and in a very personal way. Somewhere to pour my joys and disappointments, loves and friendships. I do hope that between the light and shadow of the notes, the listener might be able to live, at least partially, what I experienced while writing.
