The Odes of Solomon are beLieved to have been written around the year 100 A.D., and include strong parallels to the Dead Sea Scrolls. Scholars have debated whether the Odes should be considered Jewish, Christian or Gnostic, and whether they were first written in Greek, Hebrew or Syriac. Early Christian writings refer to and quote from them. A Syriac manuscript containing the text of most of the Odes was discovered in 1909 by the English scholar J. Rendel Harris, and other partial texts in various languages have also been found. There are 42 Odes. Some fragments are still missing from Odes I and III, and no part of Ode II has yet been found. For these choral settings, I selected text from four of the Odes of Solomon which I found particularly compelling. The anonymous translation I have used comes from The Gnostic Society Library. less

The success of this project led to a charity performance of Messiah co-directed by Patrick and Peter Holman at the Swinburne Hall, Colchester Institute, which was part broadcast by Classic FM. Since then the choir has presented three or four concerts each season in Colchester (usually at St. Botolph's Church), often featuring baroque music. Many of the original members still sing with the choir, which is intended for experienced choristers (members sing with other choirs and some have solo careers) who can sight read well and respond to direction, thus enabling concerts to be performed with only two or three rehearsals. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Colchester-Bach-Choir/330623297057?ref=hl less

Adansonia Biocentric Vocal Project
è un progetto legato alla vocalità femminile, una scelta legata ad un suono ed un timbro specifico che abbraccia le frequenze alte dell’udibile, è un punto di vista, come nello specifico di ogni progetto artistico;
La scelta del nome Adansonia, (altro nome del Baobab) è legato ad un semplice concetto di crescita, come il seme in sé contiene tutto ciò che gli serve per diventare un magnifico albero, così, in noi stessi già conteniamo tutti gli elementi che ci possono portare a realizzare grandi progetti;
Biocentrico perché nel coro esiste un’alleanza di intelligenza e intenzione per un obiettivo comune;
Il repertorio incontra sia musica sacra sia musica d’intrattenimento, intendendo sempre sacro il concetto di suono e di canto;
Adansonia Vocal Project viene fondato nel 2017 dal direttore Carmelo Massimo Torre;

Da tempo impegnato in attività concertistica e nello studio del repertorio corale sacro e profano a cappella e concertato, è stato invitato a numerosi Festival e Rassegne Nazionali ed Internazionali, con grandi riscontri di critica e pubblico. Dal 2015, ha realizzato, con l’Orchestra barocca S. Teresa dei Maschi, prime esecuzioni in puglia di grandi opere barocche storiche: Bach Johannes Passion, Oratori di Pasqua e Natale; Monteverdi Vespro della Beata Vergine. Importante l’impegno nella ricerca ed esecuzione di musica di autori pugLiesi inedita: Fago Salmi e Magnificat; Nenna, Felis, Radesca villanelle e madrigali; Cafaro Responsori. Dallo stesso anno è nata la collaborazione con l’Etichetta discografica Toccata Classics di Londra per la registrazione di una collana di produzioni dedicate agli autori pugLiesi.
