Composition
Travelling up and down Italy, my country, I recollected many recordings of people telling the story of Pinocchio. Everybody thinks he knows the story. But infact everybody tells a different one. Also, I always asked it out of the blue so that anybody could prepare himself or read the book again. On this spoken word audio documents ( and with other sounds and intruments) I created this text sound composition.
The piece has many hidden an secret aspects I will not talk about, dealing with real persons I knew who became of wood and died right after. It’s mostly a piece about that.
