Notes

“Il Menestrello” tells the story of a young orphan raised with a violin, his only emotional bond. Having escaped from the orphanage, he lives peacefully in the village of Ithaca, where he enchants everyone with his music, until he is unjustly accused of stealing a precious violin. Forced to flee, he travels through deserts, forests, and distant temples, experiencing adventures filled with wonder and danger. Through every ordeal, music remains his guide and companion, a symbol of freedom, innocence, and the profound connection between man and nature. Finally, he finds peace in an oasis, celebrating life with a new melody.
