Trevor Watts & Veryan Watson: 5 More Dialogues
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Their conversations, garrulous and engaged in a monumental dissertation about life, emerge from out of a bottomless musical vortex. Such is the power and energy of 5 More Dialogues--the salvoes of arpeggios, from the hands of Veryan Weston, and the breathtaking glissandi, from the breath of Trevor Watts--that the gloom of nothingness into which the music ...

Trevor Watts / Veryan Weston: 5 More Dialogues

Escher's Circle Limit III. The Escher is visual art at its finest, a ...

Esempi: 1) Allusione mitologica: “un labirinto" (un intrico di strade) - 2) Allusione storica: “vittoria di Pirro" (un successo ottenuto a caro ...
