part right the first evening of the fourth season of PoesiaPresente, devoted to the relationship with the God saw, lived and explained by different poetic voices, sometimes dissonant
Definitely a good start. The first meeting of PoesiaPresente, hosted ieri alle 21 dal teatro monzese Binario 7 e intitolato 'In nome di Dio', ha lasciato intravedere lo spirito con cui la stagione poetica intende ripartire. La familiarità e la confidenza con il pubblico, meno marcate nelle precedenti edizioni, stanno a testimoniare la crescita continua della rassegna. Un Binario 7 con più posti pieni che vuoti, di giovedì sera, è un modo incoraggiante di cominciare. Se la missione di PoesiaPresente è di «restituire una voce a qualcosa che possa davvero cambiare la nostra vita», come ha detto Dome Bulfaro, il lavoro dell'associazione Millegru sembra proseguire nella direzione giusta.
La serata ha offerto momenti di indubbia qualità artistica, a cominciare dall'esibizione solitaria di Lorenzo Pierobon, musicoterapeuta e cantante armonico monzese. Di notevole espressività il suo assolo di voce, capace di mettere in scena un'immagine, una situazione, come di un mare in risacca e un canto che si leva piano piano, fino a diventare persistente e quasi ossessivo, come fosse la voce di un muezzin perduto alla disperata ricerca di Dio . Interessante, poi, la videointervista realizzata da Simone Casetta a Franco Loi, importante poeta milanese, che ha condiviso con il pubblico di PoesiaPresente la sua personale concezione di religione e di rapporto con il divino. Loi, cristiano convinto, ma non convenzionale, ha elogiato la saggezza di Shakespeare, quando scrive che «Ci sono più cose in cielo e in terra, Orazio, than are dreamed of in your philosophy. " Being able to recognize that in life there are countless things that are not covered for him rationality is crucial, otherwise the man of science could become just as intolerant man of faith. Loi To is also important to be able to feel alive in every moment of his life: often, people focus on objectives that are posed, and never on the path that will take them far away. This, according to him, is a little 'how to die. The poet did not recoil from even some of the considerations on the Church and the power: "When people exercise power, his ego is bound to that power, obliterating all else, friends, society, common good - Said - that is God's Church is an erasing power - he continued - that God has turned into an ideology. Even science does not know when to take as true reality of what is nothing more than an abstraction. For me - he concluded - you must be able to see God, that means recognizing the unity of all in himself and herself to the whole, a bit 'as it happens in the last canto of Dante's Paradise. "
The continuation of this meeting with God has been entrusted to Paul Gentleman, Genoese poet who has already collaborated with PoesiaPresente other times. 'The gun syllabic', as defined by Bulfaro, presented a reading is the volume Novenas Irresistible, Bible versions mistreated, who profane the sacred history in a carnival. Of a gentleman, one can not point out the great ability to inspire the ridiculous while trying, and turn it into poetry: the wise use of alliteration, anaphora and repetition lies in reading and fast nell'ilarità almost universal. In the wake of a gentleman, but with a personal touch evident, is also part of the work of Silvia Cassioli. In his fingernails plantar wooden legs and other votive offerings fantastic, the poet chanted tells stories of life in which the divine is invoked by the saints, which, however, intervene in an unpredictable and sometimes without meaning, showing that they are humans to return to the events a precise meaning, that alone would not have.
To close, an impressive performance dell'Harmonics Art Ensemble led by Lorenzo Pierobon, a beautiful choral singing, in which the voice literally disfigured, turning into almost another instrument. "A harmonic chant that allows you to resume contact with the source," as he said himself Bulfaro. "
