Philip Corner (10 aprile 1933): apothéose, 2° e ultimo dei Pieces of (Acoustic) reality and ideality, ovvero «two moments from a continuing life-series».
« apothéose” — just the remains, as recorded document, of that afternoon alone in my house in Cavriago, just outside Reggio nell’Emilia…. when i played discreetly on all sorts of objects turning them into a music added to a far-away echo-of-the-past: the forgotten France of Couperin (François)’s Apothéose de lully&npsp;» (Philip Corner).
