Night, a time of rest, calm and dreams, but also of anguish, nightmares, fears and uncertainties. The greatest poets, librarians and composers of the Baroque period have reserved arias and texts and pieces of extraordinary beauty for it. This recital pays homage to the time of darkness and all the charm that surrounds it.
