Genova 2001

Genova 2001 is a contemplative journey shaped by memory and silence. Composed by Carlo Matti and Simone Ficicchia, this piece evokes a city suspended between history and tide, echoing with the weight of 2001 and the quiet dignity of resilience.

The piano flows like seawater through narrow alleys, whispering stories with each tender note. In its softness lies a strength, as if the keys remember everything. The saxophone enters like a breath behind the curtain, not to speak but to remind, to reflect, to be.

This composition doesn’t ask for attention. It lingers, like a postcard from another time, carried by the wind across a harbor. There is no crescendo, only the persistent sound of something that remains, despite everything.

For those seeking meditation, melancholy, or the slow poetry of memory, this piece becomes a vessel, anchored but never still.

Genova 2001 is not about nostalgia, but about the dignity of what endures. A tender tribute to a place, a moment, and the silence that followed.
