«Svaniscono, cadono / i poveri uomini, […] come l’acqua da un masso / all’altro precipitato /in fondo all’ignoto»: una meditazione sul destino dell’uomo, sul rapporto con la divinità e sul mistero della morte. Nel Canto del destinoche Brahms modella sui versi di Hölderlin, il dubbio insolubile torna a farsi musica, lo stesso dubbio arcano che, nella straordinaria partitura di Gluck, Orfeo prova a sciogliere, sfidando le Furie e varcando il confine oltre la morte, per riportare a sé Euridice, la donna amata. E che certo, come un fremito, attraversa anche la preghiera di Norma alla luna, la sua invocazione alla pace, nella celebre opera di Bellini. Sotto le mani esperte di Riccardo Muti, una risposta si leva forse in quell’estatica luce che chiude il canto brahmsiano, quasi un messaggio di redenzione e di speranza.

Sono passati oramai tanti anni dal primo avventuroso viaggio che segnò l’inizio delle Vie dell’Amicizia: era il 1997, nelle orecchie ancora il rumore dei bombardamenti e negli occhi le macerie, dalle ferite fumanti di Sarajevo si chiedeva alla musica un aiuto per ritornare a sperare, per guardare al futuro. Da allora, Ravenna Festival non ha più smesso di gettare ponti di fratellanza: per lenire i guasti dell’odio e del terrore, quelli dell’incomprensione e della diffidenza. Ma anche per ritrovare negli occhi dell’altro e nelle pietre più antiche le proprie stesse radici. Come nel percorso che in questo 2023 da Ravenna si snoda verso Jerash, a rendere omaggio alla straordinaria generosità con cui il popolo giordano da anni accoglie i profughi in fuga dalla guerra nella vicina Siria. La musica risuonerà in una città rimasta “invisibile” per secoli, sepolta dalla sabbia dopo un devastante terremoto nel sec. VIII, e tornata infine a risplendere, negli imponenti resti dell’originario impianto romano, grazie alla passione di indomiti archeologi. Così come Pompei, anch’essa “invisibile” per oltre un millennio, nascosta al mondo dalle ceneri del vulcano, e riscoperta nel segno dell’archeologia e di un passato che prepotente torna a imporsi, memoria viva che si fa futuro. E ancora una volta, partendo dall’antica capitale bizantina lambita dalle acque, il gesto di Riccardo Muti guiderà i musicisti italiani e giordani, uniti a invocare pace e fratellanza nella lingua universale dei suoni.

“Suffering humans / decline and blindly fall […] like water thrown / from cliff to cliff / down into the Unknown”: a meditation on human destiny, the relationship with the divine and the mystery of death. In Brahms’s Song of Destiny, set to a poem by Hölderlin, the unsolvable doubt becomes music once again, and it is the same mysterious doubt that Orpheus tries to resolve in Gluck’s extraordinary opera, defying the Furies and crossing the boundary between life and death to bring back his beloved Eurydice from the underworld. The same doubt, like a thrill, pervades Norma’s prayer for peace to the goddess of the moon in Bellini’s well-known opera. Under Riccardo Muti’s baton, a possible answer emerges in the ecstatic light that concludes Brahms’s song, like a message of redemption and hope.

So many years have passed since the first adventurous journey that marked the beginning of the Paths of Friendship project: it was 1997, the sound of bombs still in our ears, the rubble in our eyes, when music was called from the smouldering ruins of Sarajevo to offer new hope for the future. Since then, the Ravenna Festival has never stopped building bridges of brotherhood to heal the wounds of hatred and terror, of incomprehension and mistrust, but also to find our roots in the ancient stones and in the eyes of others. Similarly, this year a new journey will wind its way from Ravenna to Jerash to pay tribute to the extraordinary generosity with which the Jordanian people have welcomed refugees fleeing the war in neighbouring Syria for years. Music will resound in a city that has remained “invisible” for ages, buried in the sand since a devastating earthquake destroyed it in the 8th century, and which, thanks to the passion of indomitable archaeologists, has finally been brought back to life in the imposing remains of its original Roman layout. Just like Pompeii, also “invisible” for more than a millennium, hidden from the world by the ashes of the volcano, and rediscovered in the name of archaeology and of a past that has re-emerged with new force as a living memory that becomes the future. And once again, from the ancient Byzantine capital washed by the waters, Riccardo Muti’s baton will lead Italian and Jordanian musicians, united in a plea for peace and brotherhood through the universal language of sound.
