September offers a rich array of music by Fabio Vacchi: two world premieres in Vicenza and Bari and a portrait in three concerts at the 2014 MITO Settembre Musica festival in Milan and Turin.

Starting with the world premiere of Love’s Geometries, to be performed on September 6 in the Teatro Olimpico in Vicenza by the Orchestra dell’Università degli Studi di Milano under the direction of John Axelrod, the month proceeds with the portrait that the 2014 MITO SettembreMusica Festival is dedicating to him in its contemporary music section. 

The numerous and varied events include: the melologue Prospero, o dell’armonia for actor and orchestra performed by the Filarmonica del 900 del Teatro Regio under the direction of the young Hungarian conductor Gergely Madaras (15 September in Turin and 16 in Milan); and the Italian premieres of the two pieces for large orchestra Tagebuch der Empörung and Veglia Prima to be performed by Beat Furrer conducting the Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale della RAI (17 in Turin and 18 in Milan). 

It all comes to an end on September 30 in Bari, with the world premiere of Il bordo vertiginoso delle cose, based on a text by Gianrico Carofiglio, who will also take on  the role of the narrator. The Orchestra del Teatro Petruzzelli, of which Vacchi is currently composer-in-residence, will be conducted by John Axelrod.
