Cum Dederit

A minimal and intense CD dedicated to Philip Glass' music.
Floraleda Sacchi (Harp and Creative Mix)

Since 2007 Floraleda Sacchi performs regularly Philip Glass' works on Harp. 
She realized Glass' music works perfectly on Harp and since then she became for many years the only harpist regularly performing worldwide his music in concerts, tv and radio broadcast: performances were listed on official Glass' website and some Glass' pieces were recorded live for the American Harp Society as important contribution to Harp repertoire.
 
Beside live performances, in 2007 Floraleda recorded 'Open the Kingdom' for the CD 'Suite en Duo' published by PHILIPS label (Cat. No. 476 5978).
In 2008, she included the five 'Metamorphosis' in her celebrated recording 'Minimal Harp' (DECCA, cat. No. 476 3172).
 
Finally, in 2012, she recorded this album for Portraits' Collection by Amadeus Arte with a lot of world premières for the Harp and with a completely new sound approach opening a new dimension for this music.


"Ms Sacchi invents a fascinating chapter of modern history of the harp." Angelo Foletto, La Repubblica
 
''I'm pretty sure fans of Glass will be stunned by these renditions.''
Tokafi Magazine
 
''The way Floraleda performs Philip Glass goes beyond the wonder.''
Tommaso Labranca, Acid Jazz

Philip Glass - Opening (from Glassworks)

Lorenzo Marasso was born in Torino, Italy. He graduated from the Conservatorio di Milano in 1994. The same year, he enrolled in the postgraduate program at the Royal Academy of Music in London, where he also studied orchestral conducting. In 1996, Lorenzo participated in the Park Lane Group Young Artist Series performing at the Southbank Centre in London, a solo recital of contemporary compositions by Paul Patterson, James Macmillan, John McCabe and Nimrod Borenstein. Lorenzo's commitment to performing contemporary works led him to participate to the Valentino Bucchi Piano Competition in Rome where he was a prize winner. Further engagements included performing the UK premiere of Keith Jarrett's Sonata for Violin and Piano at the Hatherleigh Festival as well as works by Nigel Clarke and John McCabe in the presence of the composers. Later on Lorenzo founded String Orchestra Project, an ensemble devoted to performing the chamber orchestral repertoire with no boundaries of styles or combination of players. In 2017 Lorenzo founded Bauhaus Records, a recording label devoted to restoring a more healthy and direct relationship between musicians and the recorded product. Current catalogue include the complete Inventions and Sinfonias by J.S. Bach, performed by Lorenzo, and Haydn's The Seven Last Words of Christ on the Cross. In June 2018 Lorenzo premiered "Partizan", a staged melologue for pianist and actor that Lorenzo commissioned LA-based composer Anne LeBaron. In February 2019 Lorenzo appeared on Classical KING FM NW Focus LIVE, a radio show showcasing the Pacific Northwest’s diverse music scene. Lorenzo currently lives in the Seattle area where he continues his activity of solo and collaborative pianist as well as chamber musician and educator and enjoys collaborations with the Philharmonia Northwest, Seattle University and Key to Change.
