“Notte sul corte” is not an Opera. The images described by the text are reproduced scenically by the music. The general key is the “non-sense”, developed on several levels. The text is formed by the superimposed union of two non-sense poems in order to have a greater propensity towards the “absurd”, in fact, the non-sense. The only “theatrical scene” required of the singer is found in the final of the composition: without any reason the singer, musically accompanied by an “operatic finale”, collapses and dies. There are parts with freer interpretations. There are also musical grafts in which the music enters on specific words. The music found its genesis from some expressions, recalling them in the course of the composition and thus becoming a leitmotiv.
