Orpheus, a demigod more powerful than the gods themselves. When he sings to the sound of his lyre, the fiercest beasts grow gentle, the stones and the trees are moved by his celestial voice, the mighty rivers stop to listen to him.
Let us follow the sound of his voice in the company of Monteverdi, Cavalli, Peri, Gesualdo… to whom the instrumental pieces of Merulo, Lappi, Bonizzi will respond…
