Luca Luciano

Part of a UK tour of churches and cathedrals to promote the new album "Partenope", the preform ace presents music informed by Luciano's research on extended techniques and new music for solo clarinet along with music by Berio, Puccini and Vivaldi.

During the performance the clarinet is pushed to the edge using a wide range of styles and expressions on music both written and composed in real time (improvised). Luciano tries in this remarkable journey to embrace all styles of music he loves in an imaginative tour around the world from Western European music to Afro-American or folklorist music of the South of Italy, from contemporary classical music with chromatic and angular-shaped melodies to heartfelt melodies.
