V/A - Sympnoe

Facts The urgent dilemma of the abused nature and the reconstructed environment is presented, in the multifaceted musical composition "Sympnoe " by Konstantinos D. Kakavelakis as an imaginary inquiry, in a time period in which climate change, coincidence and the rapid social changes and technological evolution are playing a very important role for the global organisms in relation to the values of nature.

The compositions are dedicated to love and the experienced nature, which are connected with musical thinking. The plants "Helichrysos", "Evenos" and "Anthemis" are playing a central role in the composition as rare plants of Europe, existing also on the islands of the Aegean Sea. They are appearing in the musical process in a fi ctive manner "combining" the state of "common breath" and mental feedback between man and nature as a self regulation in the overall management of the narrow point of the reserves of the nature's capacities and the intellectual heritage of humans. "Poros" is linked to the narrow paths and associations of the biological paths associated with the rhythms of memory. (Mnemosyne)
