The starting idea to create the music of "Le Vespe" was not to recover "the Lost Music" of the Greeks (using for example the stairs of Alipio), but to search for a "Sound Spirit" that was compatible and neighboring to the ancient one.
First of all, the reference musical cultures were chosen. The "modern Greek" although presumably nothing or little has to do with the ancient one, but we wanted to recover certain seductions of sirtaki as well as the massive use of bouzuki, the typical Greek guitar and oud, and an attention to seductive Hellenic Rom music.
Then we worked a lot on oriental suggestions, in particular the Sufi monodies. On the other hand, Persian music certainly contains within itself still uncontaminated germs of the ancient, and of the "entrancing" music that arrived in Athens from the colonies of Asia Minor.
A detour was therefore made in the trance atmospheres of the Turkish Dervishes very close to the atmospheres of a lot of world and chill out music today, and as regards the use of the voice, in particular for the choir, we made use of the "polyphonic sucks" of the mystery of the Bulgarian Voices.
Few texts in Italian, the fundamental ones, because our language immediately refers to the "modern song", while many texts are sung in ancient Greek, which immerses us in a sound space without time or location. A logos, to put it with the great fourth-century musicologist Aristodemus, which gives a sense of movement, that is, of the voice in the sound space.
Finally, the list of used instruments, waiting to recover the barbiton and the aulos in the near future: bouzuki, oud, drums from various parts of the world, tambourines, castanets (krotala), flutes, duduk, African percussion, violins , harp (a bit of Sicily), rabab and electronics, to preserve and deliver to the comedy that Mediterranean musical soul present in its DNA without necessarily wanting to achieve an impossible mimesis ...
