Echoes of Nature features two world premiere symphonic song cycles by Lucía Caruso & Pedro H. da Silva recorded live from Shakespeare’s church in Stratford-upon-Avon. The album features soprano Laetitia Grimaldi and composers Lucía Caruso on piano and celesta, and Pedro H. da Silva on Portuguese guitar, joined by the Royal Shakespeare Company music director Bruce O’Neil conducting the Orchestra & Choir of the Swan.
The music draws on classical techniques, improvisation, and elements from various cultures and eras. Echoes from the Renaissance, Baroque, Romantic opera, and Impressionism pervade the two cycles, as well as new sonorities created by celesta and Portuguese guitar with choir and orchestra. The first song cycle, “Echoes of Nature,” is based on poems by Korean polymath Ahae translated into Italian and French, ranging from a child discovering the world, to the silvery moon at a lake, an autumn dawn, a sunset over the mountains, to all of creation singing glory to the eternal. The “Nine Shakespeare Songs” were selected from different plays—comedies, tragedies, and fantasies— which the Stratford-upon-Avon Herald dubbed “a major new work."
