Chasing Light (Orchestral Requiem)

This piece is a grand, sweeping anthem born from memory, dedicated to the final journey of heroes.

We take the iconic melodies of the classic era and recast them for the cinematic age. The music begins with a solitary, Chopin-esque piano, carrying the weight of the past—a fragile memory echoing in the vast halls of a cathedral. As the melody swells, the lush symphonic strings and heroic French horns rise, representing the strength and the tragic burden of the armored figures in the silent city.

Every note is a reflection of the "weight of the vows"—the sacrifices made by the heroes and the unending duty to the world. Feel the power of the crystalline celesta with the thunderous, dramatic percussion, marking the final, epic step toward destiny. 

A journey through their struggles, their bonds and ultimately salvation from their duty- be it life... or mayhaps... even death. What does fate holds for the trio?

The Weight of the Vows [Music]

ENG - “Flower” is the delicacy of a flower growing in an arid field, perhaps among rocks. It is the sign of a life that resists, of a hope that continues to exist even when everything seems to come to a halt. Within the Symphonic Rock Opera Dreaming a Human Symphony, it represents a moment of deep transformation: rediscovering within oneself a feminine image — the receptive, human, and emotional part that allows one to feel again. A love that recreates adolescence, perhaps lived, perhaps only dreamed.

It is a fully symphonic piece that introduces the theme of what will become the great choral finale, when all 80 artists and musicians will unite in a single voice. Toward the end of the piece, the piano hints at a theme that will return later — “Where a Flower Can Stay” — like a karst river, a seed waiting to blossom.

Throughout the Opera, fragments of themes often appear and are later taken up again in subsequent pieces: musical traces that tell a journey, a story, a dream. Dreaming a Human Symphony.

ITA - “Flower” è la delicatezza di un fiore che nasce in un campo arido, magari tra le rocce. È il segno di una vita che resiste, di una speranza che continua ad esistere anche quando tutto sembra fermarsi. All’interno della Symphonic Rock Opera Dreaming a Human Symphony, rappresenta un momento di cambiamento profondo: il ritrovare dentro di sé un’immagine femminile, la parte recettiva, umana e affettiva che permette di tornare a “sentire”. Un amore che ricrea l’adolescenza, forse vissuto, forse solo sognato.

È un brano totalmente sinfonico che introduce il tema di quello che sarà il grande finale corale, quando tutti gli 80 artisti e i musicisti si uniranno in un’unica voce. Infatti, verso la fine del brano, il pianoforte lascia intravedere un tema che ritornerà più avanti, quello di “Where a FlowerCan Stay”, come un fiume carsico — un seme che attende di sbocciare.

Nell’Opera compaiono spesso accenni di temi che vengono poi ripresi in brani successivi: frammenti che “raccontano” un percorso, una storia, un sogno. Dreaming a Human Symphony.
