Wasserklavier (from Luciano Berio’s “6 Encores“, 1965) is a short piece that investigates the potential suggestions connected to the concept/element of water, particularly in relation to the submerged layers of memory. Principio di Archimede maintains a similar aphoristic form, but trying to approach the idea of water from a different angle, without musical reminiscences nor quotes that emerge to the surface. The underlying idea of this small composition is rather the image/picture – sadly present nowadays – of a lifeless body floating on the high seas, abandoned to a slow deterioration. An illusory stasis, denied from tiny movements that constantly alter its regularity.
