NELLO TOSCANO musician music.metason.net, fb
Proposed by the new Monk Film Festival in Italy, Ebba Jahn took the
opportunity to choose one of the suggested music works to make a video
with - it is "La scalata" by double bassist Nello Toscano who plays the cello here and
mixed it with additional man-made sounds.
Someone on the move through "lost places" came to her mind, so she
worked with collages by Stefania Buzatu to create this flux of sur-real
experience, with images of a surrealism that grew within its existence
of 100 years now.
Nello Toscano: In fact, the steps and breathing were recorded during a
climb on the crater of Etna and the cello was recorded afterwards. The
meaning of the (music) piece is twofold and therefore represents a real
climb on the volcano but also the effort to reach a goal that escapes
you and, philosophically, 'the existential effort of becoming'.
