San Domenico Committee (Onlus)

Flavio Vespasiano Foundation

From 16 to April 20 th 2010 the 1° Festival Dom Bedos Roubo was held in San Domenico Church;

The festival on the first edition is theinstrumental inauguration of the great organ Dom Bedos-Roubo Benedict XVI, too.

The Festival start on the beatiful Villa Potenziani on Friday' 16 April: the conference "Sacred Music and Art Organaria Classica" ; in the evening the first concert in the Basilica of St. Domenico. Due to eruption of the Icelandic volcano, some changes to the program "in progress of work" was needed; this for the impossibility of some musicians as Jean Paul Lecot and David Titterington to reach Rieti. The effect eruption has prevented then to some musicians (Hadrien Jourdan and François Menissier) to leave Rieti, too; so, the concert program was unchanged the level of the full original program. All the concerts was perfomed.
Great was the appreciation expressed by the numerous organ music enthusiasts, also comes from France from Belgium and even front the Japan. Unfortunately the situation of the aerial flights has hindered some people. All the musicians have expressed appreciations for this particular organ, allowing the listening of a heterogeneous and interesting repertoire, as the Bach sonatas played on the organ and violin (Jourdan-Khazachova).
So, having the capabiliy to listen contemporarily many interpretations and different ways of conceive the music was really attractive and it was notable experience. The most greater satisfaction for the organizers, and for the committee everything, is from the appreciations that the concertistis have expressed for the organ: it can be concretized as: INIMITABLE!
The Friday conference has seen the opening of Mons. Stephen Sanchirico (liturgical office of the celebrations vaticane), Federico del Sordo (Pontifical Istitute of Sacred Music, Rome) and Giancarlo Parodi (President of Italian Organist Association and Organ Professor) ; also the choice to insert interludes of Violin and Harpsichord was been extremely pleasant to the audiences. In the afternoon, excursus on the art French classical organ builder art, with photographic review of the great French organs from 1600 to 1800, following the evolution of the architectures and chronologically inserting the Rieti Dom Bedos at the end of this great artistic walk (1765). The audiences have been able to compare the stop disposition of Rieti with many historical french organs; thanks to the interventions of Barthelemy Formentelli aided from F.S. Colamarino, and of the experts of the DRAC France J.P. Decavele, D. Chailley and L. Berranger. A original books exhibition was held in the conference and in the church, too.
Friday 16, open the festival the concert of F. Menissier, with an excursus from the authors classical French and Germans up to Boely; Menissier uses a great effects, allowing the people to hear the stops colors to taste the harmonies of the French classical organ; the passages have been performed with the original french pedalboard.
Saturday 17, with the presence of Italian Governement authority On. Gianni Letta and of the prefect of Rieti Dott. Chiara Merolla, besides representatives of the weapon of the Policemen and the Army, we have been able to taste of the atmosphere and of the suggestion of the G. Nivers mass I, with Gregorian choir in alternatim: organ Federico Del Sord, choral Urbi Romans Cantores directed by Don Alberto Turco; after a break the second concert: the importance of the European schools to comparison Francesco Saverio Colamarino, supervisor organist of the Dom Bedos Great organ in Rieti
Domenica 18 a great program: at 17:00 a various program thanks to F.S. Colamarino with masterpieces of J.S: Bach : then, H. Jourdan and D. Kazachova, with the listening of the able Bulgarian violinist, especially in the passage for alone violin, the Passacaglia of Biber, that has touched the people, and the Bach sonatas ported on organ and violin in couple with Hadrien Jourdan; at 18.30, the majesty of the solemn Mass with organ and choir officiated by S.E. the Bishop of Rieti Delio Lucarelli: organ: Hadrien Jourdan, choral Aurora Salutis of Rieti directed by Alessandroi Nisio. at 21:00 the interesting cool playng manner of Hadrien Jourdan, that performs with naked foot over the French pedalboard; finally the ability of F. Menissier, that give us a concert in substitution of Titterington without practically making tests.
Monday' 19 have been able to listen to the method and the executive rigor of Matteo Messori with the research of Germanic sonority in the meander of the stops of a French classical organ. To make up for to the lack of music due English to the absence of D.Titterington, Matteo has modified the program inserting in the first part a homage to the English Music, among which Jhon Bull. Matteo Messori prepared with extreme accuracy the event, studying at night up to the 4.30 to the organ (!).
Tuesday 20 finally the closing, with the poetry expressed by Luca Scandali, that culminates ago with the end of the imagination with beatiful Mozart great organ fantasy, binding also for the complex change of the stops "in run" required by this music, cleverly perfomed by Francesca Boccasanta.
All the organists, to exception of Matteo Messori, helped by his students, have been assisted for the stops change from our liturgical organist Francesca Boccasanta.
The St. Domenico Committee expresses his own thanks to all those people who are cooperated for the result of the festival,a real musical marathon and we hope soon to be able to listen so beatiful music another.
Rightful quotation finally for the St. Domenico Committee and to his honorary president S.Em. Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone and an applause to the beloved Formentelli the organ builder of the Pontifical Organ Dom Bedos-Roubo Benedict XVI, the "apotheosis of the French classical organ".
