Casa 17

Simone Soro takes us on a deeply personal journey with “Casa 17”, a piece born from an unexpected moment of stillness. Stranded in Niger during the global pause of 2020, the violinist found solace in music, transforming uncertainty into a vibrant expression of resilience and hope.

The violin, both delicate and determined, carries the narrative. Its melodies weaving between introspection and liberation. Each note speaks of adaptation, of finding light in the unknown, painting an evocative soundscape that mirrors the vast and unpredictable landscapes of his temporary home.

Blending elements of world music, jazz, and instrumental fusion, the composition pulses with rhythmic vitality, a testament to the ever-changing nature of human experience. Ethereal textures intertwine with grounded, percussive energy, echoing the contrast between confinement and freedom, stillness and movement.

“Casa 17” is a celebration of resilience, an ode to the unexpected places where inspiration finds us.
