The Sound Of Music

Step outside the usual pattern of a style shaped by a rigorous vision, while carefully managing the effects that should be highlighted in your own creation.

Whenever rehearsals end, composer invites Sergei Eisenstein to attend recording. Each time the director finds a detail to be revealed, a dramatic effect that has to be stressed. "Thus we improve a lot our music effects", said Prokofiev. Eisenstein enthuses for his music. But the composer is also satisfied.

During one recording, I hear people around muttering: "It sounds so strange ! " Nobody understands what the great composer meant, until Prokofiev, noting the bewilderment of those around, tells them laughing: "Music is nothing like Prokofiev".

But later, he would candidly tell his wife: "I hear a beautiful song on the radio, and – lo and behold - it was - Arise, ye Russian people – from the Nevsky movie ! " *

Do you draw the line of form at the point where “detail” becomes an expanding force within the creative dimension, so as to redefine the whole?

Along with the so-called originality of complexity, based on renewing correlations between "detail" variables dependent on a certain representation on the support of the line of creation, we could speak of a micro-aesthetics which involves not only content, but reports of meanings and forms considered properties of individual perception, translated into structural elements of an evolved series of improvements.

The meanings and forms attributed to a content varying, in terms of difficulty, depending on theme and spreading, in tandem with new accuracy and quality requirements contained in a style consistent with own personality, are considered more carefully and finally integrated into a new structure to support the ideal of perfection.

Here we can talk about a leadership that gives great measure to your performance and ability to recognize the meaning and form to be a uniqueness option. You need to realize by yourself and draw the line where "detail" turns into an "effect of extending the creative dimension", accentuating the need to materialize any input of meaning and form into an outstanding result.

The creative process is not merely a technical act, but an act of courage that affirms the creator’s authenticity in the face of rigid patterns. And its essential element lies in breaking out of the mold and rediscovering oneself in harmony with the essence of a changing world.

This part of you is the essence of a changing world and, at the same time, the essence of a life lived wholeheartedly.

What triggers an overall reset of leadership is the ability to get out of the usual pattern of the style imposed by the preferences of a rigorous vision, skillfully managing the effects which should be revealed in the magical light of the creation. The one who said: "Due to too strict and thorough vision, an important thing can be lost, the spirit will become insecure and thus you can lose the chance of a certain victory" was very right .

Victory, on the plan of convenient activities aiming at the reinterpretation of creation’s structure, in terms of multiplication of meanings and forms of expression, screened in a modern and compact formula, is in fact a natural consequence of the reason to enter where you access is not allowed. In that dimension of superiority where the variations and combinations of uniqueness, often bounded by the opinions of others, can achieve the "Wow ! " amazing value.

A rigorous vision modulates its expressiveness through the expression of the self, shaped by structural and aesthetic transformations that give music the power to reveal the essence of a changing world.

The Sound of Music plays that inner vibration of nature tending to study and detail, in the creation resizing stage, which can rise or fall depending on the satisfaction felt after viewing the final results.
