Gustavo Maulella (AR) – Die ewige Nacht

Gustavo Maulella über sein piano piece „Die ewige Nacht“:

„‚Die ewige Nacht‘ is based on a fragment of scene 13 of Act I of the opera Fidelio, the lyrics of the chorus of prisoners that sings:

Leb wohl, du warmes Sonnenlicht,

schnell schwindest du uns wieder!

Schon sinkt die Nacht hernieder,

aus der so bald kein Morgen bricht.

In this piece I try to describe the pain and despair of Florestán; „The eternal night“ refers to the feeling of desolation caused by the unjust imprisonment and deprivation of liberty of an innocent.“

From the moment I made contact with the music of Ludwig van Beethoven, I felt captivated by his art, and as I got to know his work my devotion to the teacher grew. Intimately I feel a deep admiration for his perseverance, his willpower and the courage with which he assumed his life.
