Luigi Grima conductor

«Are we sure – Maestro De Simone asks in the notes – that mass culture hasn’t already created a devious, aggressive virus that attacked culture and art for two generations and emptied them of their human, historical, ethical and aesthetic values?».
From this consideration, the Maestro elaborates the need to tell the current time of life through the transcription of some works by Bach, Stravinsky, Debussy, Satie and Chopin, focusing on our participation in the “cultural pandemic”.
