Composer Mastrini to perform Capelli recital at Cyprus Wine Museum

Composer Mastrini is set to perform his latest project, titled "Capelli," at the Cyprus Wine Museum. The recital showcases his unique musical style, which blends classical training with contemporary minimalism, jazz elements, and South American influences. The title "Capelli"—Italian for "hair"—carries personal significance for the composer, who has previously described his hair as a psychological refuge from the outside world.

The performance features twelve original works organized into four distinct suites: Aria, Capelli, Ghost, and Freedom. These compositions serve as a musical autobiography, drawing inspiration from various global locations including Tokyo, Paris, New York, Havana, and Buenos Aires, while frequently returning to the composer's base in Colle San Paolo, Italy. The program spans different stages of Mastrini’s career, highlighting his evolution through diverse rhythmic energy and lyrical melodies.

By performing the works himself, Mastrini offers the audience a direct interpretation of his music, emphasizing his specific choices in phrasing, touch, and emotional expression. This concert serves as a culmination of his recent recording project, which aims to provide a more revealing and personal perspective on his memories and life experiences compared to his previous work.
