Returning us to the everlasting bridges between artforms, Ivano Bersini transcends the walls of genre and medium, turning the written word into an enchanting audio experience, by way of the power of artistic collaboration.
Song is perhaps Ivano’s most stunning original work to date, in everything from the piano patterns to the poem, the harmonies and the structure; these waves of energy, rising and falling, to entirely consume the listener in this evocative statement of adoration and love.
With piano inspired by JS Bach, poetry, sung harmonies and production from Stephanie Rodriguez M., and lyrics by Ivano Bersini, Song is traditionally enthralling, but also, as per Ivano’s repertoire, completely unique from start to finish.
At under two minutes in full, Song acts as a brief but deeply moving wave of energy, beginning with opposed bursts of notes from the piano, a rising sense of impending wonder and charm, with an intermittently descending melody that feels almost circus-like in its sudden retreating from the norm.
Alongside this beautifully unique, expressive and interesting piano playing, sung vocal harmonies descend with warmth and comforting simplicity, and meanwhile, Stephanie presents a softly-spoken poem, of striking imagery and affection that’s both personal and relatable in its focus and gratitude.
I wrote a song for You
When the sun was engulfed
by the lights of the night
I wrote a song for You
when My heart
burst with passion
at the memory of Your eyes
I imagined
caressing Your hand
like a sacred ritual
paying homage to Your beauty
Lost
in Love’s desire,
I awoke
kissed by starlight
every time I think of You
pure Love showers Me
with every
goodness.
