NONA ONDA - for Cello, Guitar and Orchestra - Giacomo Susani

Nora Braun (cello), Giacomo Susani (guitar) and Constantin Riccardi (conductor) perform Susani's own "Nona Onda", a Serenade for Cello, Guitar and Orchestra. The piece, commissioned by the AGORA MUSIC FESTIVAL should have been premiered in the Kulturzentrum Beim Nëssert, Bergem (Luxembourg) in April 2020, an event which was postponed due to the COVID-19 outbreak. For this reason the organisers and the musicians involved decided together to make an online world premiere with everyone recording their parts from home.
Nona Onda is a Serenade in two halves based on the Romantic concept of the Ninth Wave, which is effectively depicted in "Idylls of the King: The coming of Arthur" by Alfred Tennyson:
"(...) Wave after wave, each mightier than the last,
Till last, a ninth one, gathering half the deep
And full of voices, slowly rose and plunged
Roaring, and all the wave was in a flame (...)"
