    I recently met Maestro Matteo Bertarelli, qualified and appreciated
    tenor and musician, who introduced me to "Il Canto Nuovo" a musical and artistic work of pregnant religious inspiration that reveals his talents and his great professionalism.

    Moreover, Maestro Bertarelli has been offering for years a competent liturgical-musical service every Sunday and feast in the celebration of Holy Mass in a church in the city of Biella.

    Hereby, in expressing heartfelt congratulations to M° Matteo Bertarelli for what has been accomplished, I convey my best wishes for his work.

    With regards,

    I personally know the tenor Matteo Bertarelli because we did a series of concerts together in China in December 2013 and January 2014; on that occasion he demonstrated outstanding artistic and professional qualities.

    Recently I had the opportunity to listen to his composition Opera Sacra,  Gloria in excelsis Deo, Il Canto Nuovo and I was able to appreciate his interest in spirituality and sacred music, his devotion to this kind of music, which also here his singing lyrical enhances even more.

    I offer my best wishes to maestro Matteo Bertarelli for his activity as an opera singer and composer.

    Translation:

    I Walter Mammarella Giordano, as a master examiner, I listened to the Sacred Work of Maestro Matteo Bertarelli "Gloria in excelsis Deo - Revelation Il Canto Nuovo", in my opinion a monumental work, with a clear and defined, profound and spiritual project .
    The first part has fewer pieces, but more articulated than the second, where there are more short times: this gives the sensation of an initial static that gradually becomes more and more excited in a crescendo of a stringent ending.
    The style occasionally winks at Puccini, but moments of medieval bicinia prevail with lots of sensitive doubles. Furthermore, the use of percussion and brass in a hieratic way accompanies the voice of God, like a soundtrack from the golden years of the Colossal films.
    It therefore remains a demanding job, suitable for uncommon listening and above all inspired by a certain spirituality.

    Holy Father,

    I turn to you to ask for your Apostolic Blessing on the unpublished Sacred Work composed and written by me under Divine inspiration, for solo voices, choir and orchestra "Gloria in excelsis Deo - Revelation Il Canto Nuovo", a work which has already been proposed to the attention of His Excellency Bishop of Biella Mons. Roberto Farinella through careful conversation, and after listening, I was given his written approval regarding this Work which I am attaching to you.

    I am also forwarding you two other distinct letters of musical certification, written by two important Masters - Music Directors and Composers.

    I give you as a gift the prototype of the CD to listen to including the Booklet with the lyrics, CD entirely produced in a professional way by me.

    Waiting for your response, I Matteo Bertarelli want to entrust this project in the hands of God, with the hope that this Divine message can be spread, through this music, all over the world.

    Thanking you in advance,
    I offer you my warmest greetings, Peace and all good things.

    FIRST SECTION - GENERAL AFFAIRS

    From the Vatican, 15 June 2022

    Dear Sir,

    with a courteous letter dated 31 March last, as a sign of devout homage, you sent the Sacred Opera "Gloria in excelsis Deo - Revelation Il Canto Nuovo", composed by you, to the Holy Father.

    His Holiness, grateful for the appreciated gift and for the sentiments that prompted it, ensures remembrance in prayer and, while recalling that «music can help biblical texts "speak" in new and different cultural contexts, so that the divine Word can effectively reach minds and hearts», he hopes that «voices, musical instruments and compositions will continue to express, in the current context, the harmony of God's voice, leading towards the "symphony"».

    (Video message, February 4, 2021). With these sentiments, the Pope, while encouraging you to cultivate your talent by also engaging in Christian witness, heartily imparts the Apostolic Blessing, which he gladly extends to loved ones.

    I greet you with warm cordiality.

                                                                                                                             Mons.L. Roberto Cona
    Assessor

    Gloria in excelsis Deo - Revelation
    Il Canto Nuovo

    A Christian Project that was born from a pregnant religious inspiration, passing through several prophetic dreams, which then materialized into this unreleased musical Sacred Work that I created.
