Subterranean Mines of Love, or:
between Eros and Thanatos Orpheus
Introduction by Quirino Principe
Libido, Eros, Agape. Within the sphere of Archetypes,
three symbolic forms, perhaps three “true” hidden gods,
whose likenesses have never been revealed.
Within the
sphere of language, three ideas which are difficult to
transform into concepts. It is possible to translate them
into vibrations.
Thus, music - the science of making
materials and energy vibrate in order to generate sounds,
is the art that boasts the most exclusive rights of
representation over the three above-cited degrees of
what we call LOVE.
The 15th and 16th centuries have
come to be, over the illusory course of time, the era
which most transparently sees the ancient archetypes
meld with the modern age, and which understood that
the nobility of Agape contains traces of Eros, and that
Eros contains traces of Libido - sailing along “the bitter
sea of love.”

Absolute Ensemble
Kristjan Järvi, conductor
Two ensembles, one inspired by the
Balkan tradition, the other by
contemporary music, meet on the
same track at a train station.
Is there
a language that can help me come to
terms with the modern world as represented
by the Absolute Ensemble? If we imagine
that I represent a culture left behind compared
to civilized Europe, and that the Absolute
Ensemble represents contemporariness,
then our dialogue would be an imaginary encounter,
an encounter between two opposites that otherwise
would not meet and speak with one another so easily.
But they can do this through the common language of
music. This work consists of three movements in the
form of letters to three Prophets, based on a dialogue
which ranges from "clash" to "reconciliation".
The
country I come from has a terrible and tragic history,
where for centuries three religions - Catholicism,
Orthodox Christianity, and Islam - have fought
one another.
I want to believe that writing musical
letters to three Prophets will not be perceived as a
disrespectful act.
