This is a gentle preparation for the next story, a diffraction of the music of Gesualdo, in which we experience, with a popular singer, percussion, broken windows and a saxophone quartet, The Dreadful and Terrible Story of the Prince of Venosa and the Lovely Maria.

Finally, we return to the world that served as a benchmark for Domenico, that of his father, the divine Alessandro Scarlatti, who possessed the gift of piercing his hearers with just two notes. 'Stories of other stories' is a voyage of discovery…
