"Passacaglia della Vita" - an homage to the facets of life: heartache, betrayal, seduction, impermanence, excitement, fun and laughter. At the center of the concept of the program is the eponymous song "Passacaglia della Vita" by Stefano Landi. While the stanzas depict a wide variety of life situations and repeatedly call for the enjoyment of life in accordance with the motto "Carpe diem," the refrain repeats the rather admonishing "bisogna morire" - each of us dies. The reminder of death - or in a religious sense, the belief in redemption and life eternal - illustrates the finiteness of worldly joys and gives us a framework for life.
