Inferno
The hell within
It
is often said that heaven and hell are otherworldly places, situated at unknown
locations. Heaven is supposed to be above the clouds, and hell, in a secret
underground cave. Maybe they are. But both also exist within us, and we
experience them every single day. Hell is just as close to humanity as the
country of God. Hell is an everyday state of mind.

Dante Symphony
Liszt Dante´s Symphony inspired me to reflect upon the modern man, our
values and the "Zeitgeist" in which we live. Its inferno full swirls
and phrases made of echos of its own themes inspired me to visions of ironic
decay.
A place where Eros and Thanatos
try to constantly dominate each other killing lust instead of creating
desire,constant deaths of unecesary wishes
instead of future and hope.
I see loneliness in the purgatory, isolation and the luck of
comunication in a world more and globalize by the media but which in fact
deserve the human being by kidnapping his own humanity and making him afraid of
face to face contact.
A blog of loneliness in which people expose their own worlds to
strangers failing to acomplish the intimacy of zweisammkeit.
I personaly love the fact that Liszt was afraid he could not recreate
heaven and let us in the portal of purgatory wishing for a celestial world. His
fear speaks to me of his humanity and his doubt for the recreation of good.
The final magnificat sounds like a lamentation rather than an embrasse
of hapiness.
I feel in this new milenium we are at this very same portal in which the
future is no longer predictable and spiritual values are at the verge of a new
begining. I feel we, as a human race, have to redifine all the known aspects of
society and it scares us as well as scared Liszt to see heaven because it is
somehow easier to create pain and depresion rather than peace and hope.
The passion of Hungurian music is close to my latin roots. (Roberto Galván)
