The first album ever released by Lit Silver delves into the fragilities of the human being, in its complex but fascinating emotions.
Lyrics are in Italian, but most of the music is instrumental.

Fragile

Inspired by a sonnet written by a friend of mine, “Follia” is a 6 part suite exploring the incomprehensible and unexplainable nature of the human mind. 
“Terribile tarantella” (terrible tarantella) shows how unpredictable and unexplainable the human mind is.
“Color viola” (purple color), the color my poet friend associated with Folly, is represented in its shades, sometimes shifting towards red (represented with tension and drama), while other times towards blue (represented with the melancholy of blues).
Closing the album comes “Eppure vola” (yet it flies), an explosion of life, where the human moves on, despite his fragilities.

Follia: IV. Terribile tarantella / V. Color viola / VI. Eppure vola

Tension accumulates and errors stack up until the threshold will be passed and everything will fall. From then, things can be rebuilt from scratch, but better than before, since now leaks are known.

Il Crollo

Il crollo

Sospiro d’Animo is inspired by an Italian poetry current of the Middle Ages, the “dolce stilnovo”, or “gentle new style”, where the poet sought love without physical contact or social interactions with the loved one. Seeing just the beauty of a person was enough to compare it with an angel, but it missed a continuation, keeping the author in a precarious and uncompleted state.

Sospiro d'animo

A land field is being treated with care and attention, while it holds its growing plants. Nobody expects a violent storm to destroy the products, wasting months of work. What will happen next? Will there be another try or will the purpose of the terrain be changed?

Frutti della Terra

Frutti della terra

When there is no hope and fulfilling a desire is impossible, regret is useless. The only mistake was to set unrealistic expectations. Illusory fantasies and imagination could be the solutions to escape from delusion, but, in the end, you need to let go.

Irrealizzabile

The piano, in solitude, starts its melancholic singing, preparing to join the rest of the instruments, but it’s soon set aside when there’s no more space for it. Almost the same thing happens with the acoustic guitar.
In the second part, though, the two outcasts meet each other and their dialogue evolves in the big ending, where they’re finally together with the other instruments.

In Solitudine

In solitudine

We live some special experiences throughout our lives, and some of them end just before we feel like they are finished.
Just like butterflies: beautiful animals, but with a really short lifespan.
I lived a special experience that lasted shorter then I expected, but had a deep impact on me, making me live some of the best moments of my life and rediscover its beauty.
This EP is my way of preserving the memory of this experience so that it will never be forgotten.
I dedicate it to the person with whom I shared those precious moments, in the hope that we'll both cherish them in our memories as we go on with our lives.

Recurring dreams

Post fata resurgo

The strong gratitude I’m feeling for what I’m experiencing with the person to whom this EP is dedicated, combined with a personal desire for musical experimentation, gave rise to this short opus, my fifth release.

It’s a work that represents the beginning of an adventure that, more than once, put me to the test and pushed me towards my limits in different aspects of my life. Similarly, its production also pushed me towards and beyond my musical limits, both in production and in singing.

I hope that the music will convey the intensity of emotions that I felt and that are still growing, wishing that what was started with a little spark could continue in new adventures, other chapters.

Dedicated to V
