Philosophy I Design I Planning I Pipes I Woodwork I Voicing

Designing a liturgical organ always represents a double challenge:

conceiving an instrument compatible with the sacred visual language

building something capable of keeping an architectonical ideal and a spiritual message coherent and united throughout the centuries.

When I mention the language, I refer to the one of our time, because I never tire to believe that beauty resides in the contemporary language, too.

In an era that tends to annihilate the possibility of expression by limiting it in old fashioned and figurative contexts, I try to let the intimate symbolism made of little evocations and lines of synthesis re-emerge, the use of precious and less noble materials

I love all those techniques that recall the hand of a man because the organ is an ensemble of

materialized human energies which go down deep, give message of spirituality, help meditation and prayer, touch the souls.

Designing a non-religious space, such as a concert hall, is not any less demanding if the goal is sculpting and creating an instrument as if it were a totem of a different spirituality, a hymn to the musical heavens, a place of sound mystery as a mystery of all creations.

The organs have a history that has no time, thus their solid anchoring to traditions; nonetheless it offers infinite possibilities as an instrument that will never die in the future.

The casework of the organ is not only its resonance box: it’s its true casing, the business card that introduces the audience to the language and the soul of the instrument. The perfection of mass produced pieces has weakened our senses for a few decades to the point of getting us used to an altered perception of what perfection should be, often times becoming a synonym with impersonal and indifferent. People are getting used to saying: “Perfect, it seem as if it were made in a factory!” We are forgetting what’s really important, that is the unique aspect of a work of art as a product of man and his time. Each time in history has its Art. And that is what my job is: to translate in a work of art the artistic language of our time.
