Africa per quintetto d'archi
00h 19' 00" Chamber

2 Vni, Vla, 2 Vc.

Full score (6185) and parts (6185P) on sale.The final chord of a Schubert string quintet is the only recollection in this piece to the European musical culture. Sollima uses ancient Arabic scales and an unrelenting rhythm, which 'assumes a physical presence, the dramatic component of which translates into dance, into theatricality'.

Composed in: 1994
