Biography

In a moment that many people are craving for renewal, Juliano Ravanello brings a new vision to gregorian chant and reveals his search for inner silence in his new album. Recorded in Russia, “Music of Silence” reinterprets gregorian chant through fusion with classical music. In the track list we can find traditional chants in latin language but the sonority is full of contemporary references from artists such as Andrea Bocelli and Hans Zimmer, in the orchestral arrangements by Maycon Ananias, in tune with the ambiences of the new age, influenced by artists such as Enya, culminating in minimalism style (in the last track - “Resurrexi”), with textures and synths, which dialogue with the work of artists like Ólafur Arnalds. “Music of Silence” transforms the search for inner stillness into a narrative, driven by music, so the listener can, upon entering a state of mindfulness, experience the uplifting of the spirit and the contemplation of the beauties around them. Born in União da Vitória, Paraná, Brazil, Ravanello worked on the reinterpretation of gregorian chant based on a constant search for the best way to translate this ancient identity to the present day. The album produced by Maycon Ananias, under the creative direction of Rebeca Brack, was recorded by St. Petersburg Recording Ensemble (Russia) and manifests, through music, a search for the transcendental, whatever the listener's faith.
