Dedicated to Maestro Renzo Musumeci Greco and his Fencing Academy, “Allez!” is a composition for orchestra characterized by two main melodies, the first energetic and vital, the second more playful. As the title itself indicates, the piece is an invitation to the fencers’ combat: when the word “Allez!” is about to be pronounced, each athlete is at the peak of physical and mental concentration. The original musical idea starts precisely from the sound of this word and the images associated with it. The song was broadcast for the first time on the occasion of the Fencing Marathon, 2nd edition, at Piazza del Campidoglio in Rome.
