Ritratto

Ritratto is a stunning neo-classical piano solo album by the talented Carlo Matti, released under the Raighes Factory label. The album is a beautiful portrait of the muse Alessia, capturing the intricate nuances of her personality, from the complexity of her roots to the simplicity of a blue sky. The album is a dialogue between the author and the represented subject, reflecting the echo of the Universe in a true and authentic way.

The album consists of five tracks, each with its unique character and style. Contrappunto della mente is a linear interweaving of thought, while Valzer della Principessa pays tribute to the elegance and sweet masks that decorate the structure of time. Qualcosa che riguarda l’Universo is a secret weaving that reveals the mysteries of the Universe, and Pédanterie poétique is an art that only the determined can understand.

The focus track, Dov’è l’Orsa Maggiore?, is a perfect representation of the album’s essence. It takes the listener on a journey through the portentous realm of dreams, surrounded by the sounds of a friendly forest. As they look up at the sky, they ask themselves, “Where is the Big Dipper?” This track is a beautiful example of the balance between the visible and invisible worlds, played with love and mystery, just as the muse Alessia intended.

Carlo Matti’s Ritratto is not just a classical album; it’s a work of art that invites the listener to explore the intricate nuances of the Universe. This album is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates the beauty and complexity of the music.
