KEYBOARD3—Navona’s second all-Sergio Cervetti album—takes the listener to a world of kinetic and emotionally charged sound forged from three keyboard instruments. Sometimes it is the pianoforte, the king of instruments or the double keyboard of the harpsichord. Moments where melody and counterpoint reflect a phrase from the literature of Milton, the shifting syncopations of dance, emotions from bittersweet opera or the fluidity of the Magellan clouds and the shimmering Antarctic are given structure and concept in six works by Cervetti for piano, harpsichord, and organ.
Cervetti’s works have been lauded as “truly novel and genuinely
intriguing” (Washington Post), “a listener’s joy” (New York Times),
and “extremely lush and expansive” (NewMusicBox), and critics
have hailed him as a forerunner of innovation in the contemporary
classical scene.
