Senti! Aspetta! Wascomposed in two stages: the first part was completed, for solo piano, between 2018 and 2019, to whichthe instrumental 'coda' was added in 2020, a sort of enormous 'reverberation' of what had been heardbefore. Offese fantastiche is a series of seven very short pieces for solo piano that each explore an elementarymusical idea that is presented radically in it's bare nakedness.
