Program note

«Lacrymosa I-a, for accordion and electro-acoustic device was taken from the original version of 2001 (without electronics). It starts from a melodic structure in which in some madrigalistic Monteverdian figures have been made more abstract, condensed or expanded in their expressive character as well as in their length; the whole composition is in fact the fruit of specific attention towards a radical simplicity and economy of elements».
