{"product_id":"9790708167747","title":"SAGRADA FAMILIA SYMPHONY | VINYL RECORD (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eAntoni Gaudi's monumental temple La Sagrada Familia is a universe within a building. It's mass of stone and metal is bathed in coloured light diffused from dazzling stained-glass windows. The colossal structure is supported by great pillars inspired by the shapes of tree trunks that reinforce the impression of a spiritual forest. Around the main access points to the basilica are three great facades: Nativity, Passion and Glory. Each is a visual world unto itself, stylistically apart yet united by Gaudi's grandiose vision. These three facades are the inspiration of my three-movement A Gaudi Symphony, a sequence of narratives. The visual journey, from the representational to the abstract, is something I also tried to mirror in the music. When I visited La Sagrada Familia in October 2019 there was still scaffolding to support the work on the remaining towers. Whereas A Gaudi Symphony is inspired by that unique building, I hope that my musical structure can stand alone as an homage to Gaudi in it's own right. © Richard Blackford\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BLACKFORD,RICHARD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48240684073205,"sku":"9790708167747","price":75.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/thevinylvista.com\/products\/9790708167747","provider":"Vinyl Vista","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
