Piano Solo Corpo Solo (Embracing 10) is a performance/concert in which the intimate and solitary condition of "chamber" music is recreated in sound and movement, to establish a subtle contact ad personam in a public space, a reserved and intimate performance for a vast audience of individuals. It is a "Toccata" on the caress, on the tactile "play with something that is taken away": the caress does not know what it is looking for and what is caressed is not touched, it is brushed. There is a tension towards the other that is never possessed, and the search for something that by its nature can only escape. We live in times in which contact has lost its tactile component, moving towards the visual/virtual one. In this artificial context there is a "turning the body into an object", "making it a thing", to be preserved, to be saved. This creates a tear in us, in which contact does not express its real subtle power. The one that acts as a glue, that binds us to the unconscious, and that establishes the right distance, the distance that makes us, on the contrary, close. Hence our affection pushes us beyond the black and white barrier of the keyboard and the skin to touch and bring out, in the emotionality of the instrumental discourse, even conditions such as incommunicability, alienation, existential discomfort in presentism.
