Genesis it was the Maestro’s first opera Franco Battiato, and is now back as a newly remastered edition.
This work was first released in 1987 on label Fonit Cetra who used the recordings made during the first performance at the Teatro Regio in Parma on 29 April, 3 and 5 May 1987.
For many Genesis is the most beautiful work of Battiato and now it is re-released with remastered audio from the original master tapes.
21 tracks where, musically, mixes of electronics, pop and symphony orchestra are found. Certainly it is not a very easy work, but it is extremely fascinating in which all the desire for is found Franco Battiato to research and the curiosity of a traveler fascinated by extra-Western liturgies.
In the Middle East the Maestro had explored a different way of living spirituality and wanted to tell it in music. This is also the reason for the linguistic choice for the texts and the mix of languages: Italian, Sanskrit, Persian, Turkish, English, French … Franco Battiato this is how he defined this work:
“Genesis is a work that tends to an esoteric experience, not only because this is the central topic of my work but because it relies on listening as a real mystical experience.”.
After some studio previews in some Italian cities, Parma invites him to represent the opera at the Teatro Regio: 180 members of the “Arturo Toscanini” Symphony Orchestra of Emilia-Romagna directed by Alessandro Nidi, 65 choristers, two sopranos, a tenor and a baritone.
