about

This work is an In Memoriam to the physical and psychological tribulations that the Maltese Christian population had undergone to achieve “La Vittoria” (The Victory) in the Great Siege of Malta (1565) – a crucial moment in the struggle between Islam and Christianity for the domination of the Mediterranean. A memorable historical episode which preserved Christianity – the Faith introduced to Malta in around A.D. 60 by St. Paul on his way to Rome for trial.

The emotional by-products of such tribulations along with those of pride and joy of “The Victory” itself are expressed by the composer in a combination of classical forms and modern techniques which are craftily interchanged and intertwined in a subtle creative way throughout this work.
