'O! Lest the World' - text

O! lest the world should task you to recite
What merit lived in me, that you should love
After my death,--dear love, forget me quite,
For you in me can nothing worthy prove.
Unless you would devise some virtuous lie,
To do more for me than mine own desert,
And hang more praise upon deceased I
Than niggard truth would willingly impart:
O! lest your true love may seem false in this
That you for love speak well of me untrue,
My name be buried where my body is,
And live no more to shame nor me nor you.
For I am shamed by that which I bring forth,
And so should you, to love things nothing worth.

'FrammentAzioni' - press review

'Propagation I' - live on Italian national radio

Dear Composer,

The audio sequence of FrammentAzioni project will be soon available on taukay Web Radio.

We are working now over the possibility that RAI - the italian national radio - could broadcast the FrammentAzioni sequence. To do this we need a releasing declaration from every composer.

We also made a video recording during the October 11 2008 performance and we would like to produce a video DVD of the work and perhaps also an audio CD.

Please compile, sign and send us by e-mail or by ordinary mail as soon as possible, the releasing declaration that you can find in RTF and PDF format.

Thank you for your help.

Best regards,

FrammentAzioni project team


******************************
Gentile Compositore,
la sequenza audio del progetto FrammentAzioni sarà presto disponibile su Taukay Web Radio.

In questo momento stiamo lavorando sulla possibilità che Radio RAI (Radio 3 suite) possa trasmettere la sequenza di FrammentAzioni. Per fare questo abbiamo bisogno di una dichiarazione liberatoria da ogni compositore partecipante.

Durante la performance dell'undici ottobre 2008 abbiamo realizzato delle riprese video che vorremmo utilizzare per produrre un DVD del lavoro e forse anche un CD audio.

Le chiediamo cortesemente di compilare, firmare ed inviare prima possibile tramite e-mail o posta ordinaria, la dichiarazione liberatoria che può trovare allegata in formato RTF e PDF.

Grazie per il suo aiuto.

Cordiali saluti.

Il team del progetto FrammentAzioni

The idea underlying this project has a broad international
perspective. It is based on the idea that brief “fragments” of sound
can be edited together to accompany movements, “actions”, in a
continuum where chance is able to construct a fascinating audio-visual
sequence.
Using the internet, artists were asked to send pieces of no more than
60 seconds in length to Taukay Edizioni Musicali, in order to
participate in a kind of collective musical composition.
The time limit was a substantial challenge for the participants,
calling for an essential nature which required complete control of the
sonic events in the search for the heart of the music.
The result is a phenomenal and multi-faceted compositional whole, made
up of 61 compositions chosen from 716 works submitted from 34
countries, to which the contemporary dance company “Arearea” has added
the expression of movement.

Arearea is a company of contemporary dance founded in 1992 by the
choreographer and dancer Roberto Cocconi who was a member of the
company Teatro e Danza la Fenice di Venezia under the direction of
Carolyn Carlson. He created the company Sosta Palmizi in collaboration
with the most important dancers of the modern authorial dance in
Italy. Since 2003 the dancers of Arearea work with the choreographers
Luca Zampar and Marta Bevilacqua, they both studied at the Accademia
Isola della Danza directed by Carolyn Carlson.

Arearea creates works for: festival of contemporary art, museums,
vernissage, happenings. Their art follows that direction and they
collaborate with all kind of artists (musicians, sculptors, painters,
directors, actors, photographers, videomakers and DJs) with whom
Arearea can experiment the mixture of different ways of expression.
