It has now been ten years since Fausto Romitelli (Gorizia 1963-Milano 2004) passed away, but his music still echoes both in and outside of the academic area. His works are now performed all over the world by some of the most prestigious ensembles, orchestras and musicians. However, they still remain “unidentified auditory objects” for the unique way in which they manage to blend high and pop cultures, and genres as diverse as classical music, rock and techno. This collection of essays, written by the greatest experts in Romitelli’s oeuvre, helps the listener enter into the complex world of a composer who left us too soon.
