Tempo rubato – the art of rhythmic flexibility – was an indispensable element of 19th-century performance practice. In this project, Marco Ramelli and Enrica Savigni present an exhibition of sounds, writings and images, all exploring the expressive use of time and its implications for the music of the past – including how we perform and experience it in today’s very different culture and soundworld. The enclosed CD consists of a richly varied programme of pieces from the Romantic period, played on original guitars from 19th-century Vienna. The program ranges from Mendelssohn’s intimate ‘Songs Without Words’ to Schubert’s most lyrical sonata, the Arpeggione.
