Triticum (Triticum is the Latin name of a type of grain commonly known as farro [hulled wheat], which in Venetian dialect is called trigoli). The composition, commissioned by the Wind Orchestra of Trigolo (Cremona), is divided into three separate movements. The first movement begins with a solemn prologue which leads to a melancholy waltz, whose theme is based on the interval structure of a folk song from Cremona, “La Merla.” The second movement is the calmer and expressive part of the composition. The third movement, which closes the piece with a festive atmosphere, is characterized by the development of the material of the prologue and the use of another popular local tune: “Quell’uselin del bosco.”
