[:it]Prima produzione discografica dei Khaossia (2008) che affianca alla libera interpretazione dei classici della musica popolare salentina e del sud Italia, l’omaggio a un artista leccese del ‘700, Ignatio Jerusalem.
“Innumerevoli migrazioni sono avvenute nei secoli e molte altre ancora ne dovranno venire. Interi popoli e singoli individui hanno lasciato i propri paesi d’origine portando con se tradizioni, usanze e simboli per legittimare la propria esistenza, per ricordare la provenienza, e che incrociandosi e sovrapponendosi hanno generato il variegato patrimonio culturale dell’umanità.
Il destino sempre imprevedibile ha fatto il resto, come nel caso di Ignatio Jerusalem, partito da Lecce nei primi decenni del ‘700 con le pupille accese dall’entusiasmo e l’animo rischiarato dal ricordo dell’assolata terra natia. La sua migrazione lo condusse fino a Città del Messico dove divenne Maestro di Cappella e trovò fama di grande compositore.
A noi è toccata una sorte analoga a quella del giovane Ignatio. Abbiamo lasciato il Meridione alla ricerca di prospettive culturali differenti con cui confrontarci e di orizzonti conoscitivi più ampi per arricchirci, rinfrancati, talvolta inconsapevolmente, da quella solare semplicità delle nostre radici. Al nostro illustre conterraneo, e purtroppo tanto poco considerato nella sua terra natia quanto ammirato nel panorama musicale internazionale, abbiamo voluto dedicare un tributo minimo, rivisitato dal Tempo, dal genere e dal nostro modo personale, certi che un animo lungimirante come il suo non se ne sarebbe certo avuto a male, anzi ne sarebbe stato piuttosto divertito.”

Recensione
[:en]As the rest the for ever unforeseeable destiny came on stage, as in the fate of Ignatio Jerusalem, who left from Lecce in the first ten years of the XVIII century, with a burning enthusiasm in his eyes and the memory of his sunny homeland in his mind. His migration took him to Mexico City, where he became choirmaster and found the reputation of being a brilliant composer. It has been up to us a parallel lot to that of the young
Ignatio. We have left the South in search of different cultural views, which we could have faced with and in search of more broad cognitive horizons, which could have enriched us, once fortified, ofetn anawares, by the radiant innocence of our roots.
Ignatius Dominicus Jerusalem
Ignatius Dominicus Jerusalem from Lecce was Chapel Master in Mexico’s cathedral, the most important musical rule in the colonial America. He was a clever composer of holy music and in a short time he became the main reference figure of the musical fields of the time. The IMLA, directed by Doc. Annibale Cetrangolo, found the baptsism certificate in the archives of the Archbishop’s Bar of Lecce. It said Ignatius, Dominicus, Orontius, Joseph Pascali Jerusalem was born in Lecce, 3rd June 1707, finally. The same document said his father, Mattheo, was an emigrant (perhaps from Neaple or from Lecce), who, considered a famous viola da gamba player, became Chapel Master in Jesus’s Church in Lecce and the teacher of the richest families’ children of the same city. Thanks to TACTUS, Albalonga has recorded for the fist time all over the world, some of Ignatio Jerusalem’s compositions, which were preserved in the Latin-American Archives.
