Josep Vicent assures that “I have always had a huge fascination for Scriabin’s music, he is very visual when writing, he has a great synesthetic capacity to relate colors, light and harmony, and his work seems to me to be a symbol.” of freedom, respect and coexistence.” The director of Altea (Alicante) highlights that “he is a great symphonist and makes the orchestra shine enormously”, as well as his enthusiasm for recording Le divin poème, “probably of all the music it is the one that most clearly tries to bring us closer towards that illumination of coexistence and the sensation of universal divinity.”

In relation to the concert, he points out that “it is a success that we will not forget, it was the last impulse to leave this record testimony; and when that extreme passion that we were able to experience occurs live, we think it is worth sharing it with more people.” Josep Vicent highlights that “in collaboration with ARIA classics and with the producer Fernando Arias we are getting closer to a common philosophy and sound aesthetic, we have achieved great achievements with recent works, and in this one, it has been a huge pleasure to explore jointly the emotive capacity of sound, and talking about the color, weight, density of music… all of this, in a process of strong complicity and which we thoroughly enjoyed.”

Fernando Arias, emphasizes that “with this album, Josep Vicent and ADDA Simfònica vindicate the figure of Scriabin and a work, Symphony number 3, when 120 years have passed since its creation”; and that recording it live “is an example of bravery and courage when facing and recording a very demanding score, which tests the excellence and commitment of the performers with a project.” The director of ARIA classics, musician and sound engineer believes that “the latest nominations for the Alicante orchestra are a reward for the great work carried out by one of the most relevant ensembles today.”
