NOTES ( by Leopoldo Armellini, director of the C.Pollini Conservatory )

The decision to perform Mahler's Symphony No. 1, "Titan," was difficult, but not excessively so. Certainly, the desire to tackle a piece from the great symphonic repertoire—well-known, musically complex, and technically challenging—prevailed. The risk of appearing both presumptuous and inadequate was dangerously looming. But be that as it may, temerity prevailed, and it was right that it should be so, even from a purely educational perspective. Performing "Titan" significantly raised the bar for the students called upon to compose a 100-piece symphony orchestra. However, had the performance been even adequate, it would have represented a milestone for the young orchestra members, ideally establishing a before and after "Titan." So, starting from the end, I'll never forget the students' eyes after the concert: 50 incredibly tense minutes, from start to finish, never once slacking in concentration, not even for a second indulging in self-congratulatory reflections after having mastered a difficult passage. None of this occurred, and the students noticed, because from their expressions, you could see that musically, and perhaps even humanly, they had made a leap. It was as if at that point nothing could be impossible for them, considering the starting point of the first rehearsals, those for the orchestral sections.
I believe that a good portion of the orchestra believed that Il Titano would not actually be performed, that after the first rehearsals, the Orchestral Rehearsal Teacher, Giuliano Medeossi, would have said: "Well, guys, let's go back to Viennese classicism, it's better!" And yet, day after day, bar after bar, the point of no return was reached, when the common realization that "it can be done!" It can't be said to have been easy; it was very complicated, especially because, since the performers were students (often even high school or university students), it was impossible to require everyone to be present simultaneously on every day of rehearsals. In this, the Teacher was a true magician, or rather, an alchemist: with what he had at his disposal, day after day, he built a sonic cathedral of incredible beauty.
The performance was a source of intense emotion. From the stalls, at times, you could clearly hear the audience breathing with the orchestra, and the level of empathy, thanks also to the splendor of the music, was such that many spectators found themselves in tears at the end of the performance. The CD of "The Titan" performed by the Padua Conservatory Symphony Orchestra is not for listeners who demand Euclidean perfection. To those, I recommend purchasing a studio-recorded version, with hundreds of cuts and inserts. This is a live performance and is clearly audible, including the dragging of a chair by a performer, which curiously sounds like the off-beat attack of a horn. However, since the person telling you this story is a veteran orchestral musician who has endured many battles, I can assure you that the dynamics (piano-forte excursion), the colors, the timbre, and the overall energy expressed by the orchestra are absolutely captivating and moving. The inaccuracies (admittedly few) are contained and absorbed by an overall context of intense involvement and emotion. Furthermore, for anyone who wants to check, you can listen to less-than-perfect performances by renowned orchestras on YouTube. So, this album has a purpose. First, to nurture a hundred extraordinary young people, and second, to allow a wider audience to experience the unforgettable emotion of an evening—that of March 25, 2018—which will remain in the hearts and memories of all those who attended the "C. Pollini" Auditorium in Padua.

Awesome, portable room divider for larger rooms
Color: Black, Color: Black
I chose this room divider to use in my son's room that also serves as my home office! It is 72" x 72" in size, so it truly blocks out the other side of the room for optimal privacy. Once it's assembled, it's mildly sturdy - as long as you can bet both ends with the "feet" in line with the ground. I wish that the framework poles had more of an interlocking system so that the divider was easier to erect. I assembled this on carpet, so I had some issues getting the divider to stop moving. It takes a lot of work to set up, as it is massive, so definitely have someone help you. I would suggest adding weights of some sort to the feet of this divider to keep it from shifting. I ended up leaning mine against a bookcase shelf so it wouldn't lean. All and all, this is a great product if you are looking to make a room multipurpose.

As described
Color: Black
Light weight, easy to put together and you can disconnect the ends and just roll the whole thing nice and tight for quick out of the way storage. Pretty sturdy, doesn't fall over if you bump into it, you could use it outside but if there's a lot of light you can see through a tiny bit if you're really close but I only tested this indoors so not sure about patio types
