ALFREDO CASELLA: this is a name of a composer that unfortunately does not yet enjoy, in the musical world, the right place for importance in the history of music. In this new transcription I have decided to elaborate for the organ the last two (linked) movements of his Second Symphony op. 12 (1908-1910): the fourth, Finale, and the fifth, Epilogo (Epilogue). These are perhaps the movements more related to Mahler's world that includes both a march with a grotesque effect that heralds what will become characteristic much later in Shostakovich, as well a very expressive Adagio ending (as it happens for instance in Mahler's Third Symphony). Music that changes continuously and that in a very Mahlerian act, at the height of despair and drama, transcends in a triumphal solution.

Autorenporträt
Transcriptions are essentially a way to teach and to introduce people to the great symphonic and opera music. It is also an ancient musical practice which consist of modeling on one's own instrument a music page which was intended for another one (or, more often, other ones), in order to create thus the impression that the page was written since the very beginning for that instrument. This Transcriptions Collection was born from my desire to extend to a greater audience those compositions which, even though they are well known, are seldom presented during live performances. Together with this, it is a music project deploying within the tradition of the great transcriptions by Edwin Lemare and David Briggs.
