Desiderio...

Mission

di Mariantonietta

Mai abbandonare la missione della propria vita.
Non siamo nati per piacere e compiacere, non siamo stati creati per cercare approvazione, per seguire mode, per collezionare oggetti, per inseguire chimere. Non siamo felici quando soddisfiamo i nostri capricci.
E’ prerogativa delle banderuole seguire il vento.
Abbiamo una missione da compiere, essere noi stessi. Solo questo ci permette di reggere le sfide, anche nelle difficoltà. Per questo, chi non rispetta la propria mission si ammala: ogni fibra del suo essere reclama casa,  allineata col proprio Desiderio.
Maria Antonietta BS
“il soggetto soffre di una colpa inconscia che gli ricorda che il deviare dal proprio vero Desiderio, dirottato dal contesto sociale a cedere al Desiderio dell’Altro, sia un tradimento 

( verso se stessi, NdR) 

che comporta effetti dolorosi e patologici”. 

[Massimo Recalcati]

"Gabriel's Oboe" is the main theme for the 1986 film The Mission directed by Roland Joffé. The theme was written by Italian composer Ennio Morricone, and has since been arranged and performed several times by artists such as Yo-Yo Ma, Holly Gornik, and Brynjar Hoff, among others. The theme has been called "unforgettable" and a "celebrated oboe melody". Vocalist Sarah Brightman begged Morricone to allow her to put lyrics to the theme to create her own song, "Nella Fantasia". In 2010, Morricone encouraged soprano Hayley Westenra to write English lyrics for "Gabriel's Oboe" in her album Paradiso.

The soundtrack for the film was very well received amongst critics, being nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Score and earning Morricone the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score.

In the film, the theme is most prominently used when the protagonist, the Jesuit Father Gabriel, walks up to a waterfall and starts playing his oboe, aiming to befriend the natives with his music so he can carry his missionary work in the New World. The Guaraní tribesmen, who have been stalking him from a distance, approach Gabriel for the first time, puzzled by the sounds of the unknown instrument. The chief of the tribe, however, is displeased by this, and breaks Gabriel's oboe. This marks the beginning of the relationship between Father Gabriel and the Guaraní natives.

Several orchestras have performed "Gabriel's Oboe", often under the direction of Morricone himself. The most famous renditions of the piece, other than in the movie, are probably those found in the Morricone Conducts Morricone series of concerts during the mid-2000s.

Keith and Kristyn Getty incorporated the song and blended it with their own verses with lyrics in their 2012 release "Hymns for the Christian Life" on track 12 "Holy Spirit (with Gabriel's Oboe)."
