Description:
Commissioned to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the foundation of the 'Banda Musicale Città di Procida' (Naples), this piece describes the island's three marinas. Curriccèdda (Borgo dei Pescatori): after an impressive introduction that depicts the force of the storm, the music gives itself up to the description of the island's oldest and most characteristic marina, a small but remarkable multi-colour Presepe with its picturesque houses. A world of its own surrounded by the sounds and colours of the sea. Sent'cò (Marina Grande): built on the part of the island facing Naples, Marina Grande was the main harbour and is still the hub of the island. In a lively, carefree atmosphere, the music portrays the joy and vitality that radiates from this place. Chiaulèdda: the beautiful beach and a marina that affords enchanting views at sunset make this a favourite with tourists. Procida: the musical elements that were presented in the first two movements of the suite re-appear in this final movement, where a tarantella dance precedes a generous and emphatic finale.
