“SATOR AREPO TENET OPERA ROTAS”

This is an album inspired by the “Sator square” (also known as “magic square”), a paleochristian inscription found in several places around Italy (the most famous is in Pompei), whose meaning is mysterious even today.

Five tracks; each one of those is a word of the square, and each one consists of five sonic ambients, which are the letters that make up the word itself. Each letter has its own melodic and harmonic content. In order to respect the palindrome pattern of the square, negative harmony was applied.

An instrumental concept album.
