Composer's Notes
“It is about ‘Bella Ciao’. Yet I do not quote it directly; rather, I engage with fragments—moments, scraps—of this song so vital to Italy. Henze’s Cantiere di Montepulciano is to be celebrated through it: that magnificent communal vision in which residents, visitors, musical amateurs, and professionals all become one in this Tuscan mountain village.” (Jan Müller-Wieland)
