Simone Menezes and K: MetanoiaNormalGenre: Music DVD & Blu-rayLabel: AccentusDescription: Metanoia - the word itself - means beyond thought; to broaden and change the way of seeing. `Metanoia' which crosses both time and borders with the works of Giacomo Puccini Arvo Pärt Alexander Borodin Johann Sebastian Bach Heitor Villa-Lobos and Ennio Morricone is steeped in this concept: From Puccini who only wrote one sacred work on account of the `Almighty God' commanding him to write `only for the stage' to Bach who possessed an astonishing ability to make us experience transcendence using the simplest of elements to Pärt whose ten-year creative crisis birthed a new highly original musical language. Together with her ensemble K the choir Sequenza 9.3 and violinist Manon Galy Simone Menezes travels across Italy and invites us to experience the thought-transcending aspects of music and to uncover the personal journeys of Metanoia of some of the greatest figures in music and art.
Simone Menezes and K: Metanoia (Blu-ray) would be a great fit for fans of experimental arthouse cinema.
