Le Tombeau de P.P.Pasolini was composed between 2014 and 2023.
Le Tombeau de P.P.Pasolini was composed in three pieces for ensemble and electronics, three independent volumes.
This cycle was initiated in 2014 with the commission of the first Vol (Vol I)
by Brussels based Ictus ensemble, for a show focusing on the Ars subtilior.
On a late afternoon in March (2022), accompanied by loved ones, we went to Ostia, to the very place of the tragic end, the one that says everything, without saying anything, by its screaming and deafening silence, at the very place where today (lately) stands a kind of stele/tombeau in memory of the immense visionary poet.
An inner slap, a spark, arose at that very moment, like something already written, but also an alert to have to do, to have to continue and "finish" this long cycle, as if to the point of giving thanks to what would then be an "impossible truth".
Accept death, murder, so that the life of the great poet is an endless extended inspiration.
As a result, Vol II and III were composed between September 2022 and March 2023.
These two volumes was written for an identical formation than the first one,
7 or 8 musicians and electronics.
