Description:
The 'suite Arogno' is a musical evocation of the history of this small village on the Alps, at the border with Italy. The first movement describes the travel of architect Adamo da Arogno to Trento where he will build the cathedral (13th century). The second movement celebrates the entry of Arogno into the Swiss Confederation in 1516. In the third movement you can hear the invasion of the Austrian troops in 1799. The fourth movement describes the complex move of a complete clock factory from the Jura Canton to Arogno in 1873 and the last movement evokes the arrival of the first postal car in 1925.
