A Tower That Begins in the Sky

A Tower That Begins in the Sky weaves a delicate tapestry of sound, a poetic exchange between the earthy warmth of the orchestration of Carlo Matti and the celestial breath of Simone Ficicchia’s saxophone. This evocative piece reflects on the myth of Babel’s tower—a quest for unity between earth and sky, where sound becomes a universal language and transcends the boundaries of words.

The composition is a gentle interplay of tension and harmony, as the violin and saxophone move in close proximity, their voices ‘almost’ aligning, echoing the beautifully imperfect duality of existence. Carlo Matti’s thoughtful orchestration, enriched with piano, electric bass, and subtle percussion, creates a forest of sounds that feels both vast and intimate.

Listeners will recognize echoes of Morricone and Bach, yet the work maintains its own singular voice—inviting moods of quiet meditation, tender sensuality, and deep inspiration. The subtle contrasts within the arrangement reflect life itself: serene yet dynamic, expansive yet introspective.

Let the music guide you to a space of contemplation and calm. With every note, A Tower That Begins in the Sky becomes a conversation not just with the world around you but with the deepest parts of your soul.
