It's what we don't see, when everything else is illuminated. 

Enjoy your summer, folks.

Darkness is not the opposite of light

when you share music it means you share love.

وَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا ۖ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ (48)


فوضت أمري كله إليك حسبي الله ونعم الوكيل في كل مؤذي مستمرئ ومتمادي في الأذى والأذية

عهد عليّ إلى أبي وإلى النبيّ ولن أخونه
آن آخذ الحق الهضيم وأقهر الجور الغشوم
ألا أنام عن المظالم
أن أنصر الحق المطارد
أن أحمي الضعفاء من بطش العتاة الأقوياء
أن أفضح الزيف المهين وإن تحصن بالعروش
وإن تقنّع بالغمام
أن أسحق الكذب المعربد
فإذا أبيتم أن تموتوا في الكرامة والإباء
ورضيتمُ عيش الذليل المستضام
فالله فيكم ..
ربِّ فاحبس عنهمُ قطر السماء 

(الحسين شهيدا)
عبد الرحمن الشرقاوي

"إزاي أفضل أهيم

من حارة لجوّا حارة 
ويفضل قلبي سليم؟" 

"ولا حد يفهم في الشجاعه
زى الطاحْونة الجعجاعه
قال انت أول خلق بتسيب السفينْة
خاين؟ ..لأ
خايب؟.. لأ
خايف؟ .. آه
يا بنت يا نعناعه
أنا مش طالع أبيع جرانينْ بالْليلْ
انا طالع آكل أقرض انتش انتشي
واضرب الأخماس في الأسداس
أضرب الحماس في الاحْداث
الحركه بركه
سكرانْ؟ يمكن سكرانْ، خايف؟ أيوه خايف
وسلام على الخوفْ مَلِكْ الاحْساس
سلام عليه متراس
وسلام عليه فرّاس
سلام على الفار اللي بيلْعب في عب الفار اللي
بيلْعب في عبّ الناسْ"

"قُلْ هُوَ الحُبُ
كَأَنَّ اللّٰهَ لا يَحْنُوْ عَلى غَيْرِكَ
لا يَسْمَعُ إلاَّكَ،
ولا في الكَوْنِ مَجْنُونٌ سوَاكْ.
لَكَأَنَّ اللّٰهَ مَوجُودٌ لِكَيْ يَمْسَحَ حُزْنَ النَاس فِي قَلْبِكَ،
يَفّْدِيْكَ بِمَا يَجْعَلُ أَسْرَارَكَ فِي تَاجِ المَلاَكَْ.
قُلْ هُوَ الحُبُ
الذِي أَسْرَى بلَيلى
وهَدَى قَيْسً إَلى مَاءِ الهَلاَكْ.
قُلْ هُوَ الحُبُ يَرَاكْ."

It is fitting that composer and pianist Fabrizio Paterlini was born and lives in the ancient northern Italian city of Mantua. A romantic and historically significant centre of musical and artistic excellence, the city’s elegance and cultural depth permeate Paterlini’s exquisite original solo piano compositions. Yet despite Mantua’s unavoidable influence in informing the composer’s work, his cinematic music is far from localized, or even recognizably Italian, instead tapping directly into universal human emotions.

Listeners and critics alike are torn as to how best label Paterlini’s beautiful sound. Neo-classical, Ambient, Minimalist and New Age have all been considered, but it is more pertinent to note some of the adjectives regularly used in appreciation of his sonic palette. Ethereal, soulful, lush, emotive, dreamy, delicate and, tellingly, passionate, all appear with unerring frequency. The composer himself describes his work as “like a glass of red wine on a summer evening,” in awareness of the calming effect of his reflective melodies on the listener.

Paterlini began playing piano at six-years-old. From the first moment he stroked the keys his life irrevocably changed, music becoming “a choice made every day...explored in all its aspects.” And so music and his life’s path became, and remain, inextricably linked; while he progresses as a musician and composer, so his development as a human being runs parallel. Formal study in his chosen artistic endeavour came with five years at Campiani’s Academy, Mantua’s Academy of Arts, from where he graduated in Music Theory.

The 1990s saw Paterlini extensively cutting his teeth as a gigging musician by performing rock classics, pop and jazz in local bands. While playing with these outfits he began to compose music, at this stage principally material of a progressive rock persuasion. As the decade and century drew to a close Paterlini reached an important decision, being to concentrate exclusively on the piano – the instrument that, in his own words, “best expresses his inner world.” Yet it was not until 2006 that he began composing music for solo piano.

In the following year his life’s musical journey took a momentous step with the release of his debut CD, Viaggi in Aeromobile (Travel in Aircraft) on the Music Center label. A collection of beautifully structured, graceful mood pieces displaying Paterlini’s natural touch and seemingly effortless talents, the release was warmly received in Italian specialist press. 

2008 saw the issue of an EP previewing Paterlini’s sophomore full-length, Viandanze, which was to follow on his new Fabrizio Paterlini Records imprint in December, 2009. In the interim the 8-track Remixed collection, offered as a free download on his website, presented the composer’s material as subtly reworked soundscapes, comfortably easing them into cogent chillout territory. Viandanze was partially funded by donations from Paterlini’s burgeoning fanbase, and performed in 2010 at Teatro Verdi in Mantua.

Prestige festival appearances then preceded the 2010 release of the flawless Fragments Found CD, again on Paterlini’s own label, drawing comparisons with luminaries such as Ludovico Einaudi, Erik Satie and George Winston.

2011 saw the issue of the double CD set “Fragments Found + Viandanze”, published under the Japanese label Inpairtment/P*DIS. 
During the Fall of the same year, he started working to his “Autumn Stories” project, by composing, recording and releasing on-line one song for each week of the Autumn season. The project resulted in the CD “Autumn Stories”, published in February 2012. 
 
The increasing number of fans sharing his music on the net, led him to “Piano_Anders #3” Festival in Hasselt (BE) in the month of February 2013. Two months later, he released his new full album “Now”, followed by an exclusive release in Japan (P*DIS). This release, acclaimed by specialized magazines as Headphone Commute (US) and A Closer Listen (UK), will bring him to tour Russia in the month of November 2013 and Japan in the month of January 2014.

When I listen to music, I lose touch with my body and turn into a soul that no longer belongs anywhere. I was born in Iowa, grew up listening to jazz and blues in Chicago, spent many years in the Middle East studying Persian and Arabic literature, and was exposed to the beauty of African music. To be honest, though, not even literature can move me emotionally like music does.
