The prepared programme seamlessly transitions into contemporary expressions of maritime exploration, encompassing Charles Camilleri’s [1931-2009] poignant Pacem in Maribus, John Rutter’s [b.1945] environmentally-themed anthem Look at the World, and Luciano Berio’s [1925-2003] innovative reinterpretation of the Sicilian melody E Si Fussi Pisci, dedicated to Umberto Eco. Berio's piece showcases unconventional vocal techniques, including closed-mouth singing and tongue-clicking, adding a distinctive layer to the ensemble's musical voyage.
