In Flagrante Delicto is a research work on historic truths and poetic statements, following the footsteps of Carlo Gesualdo from Venosa. The attempt is to relieve the character from the unsettling shadow cast upon him, of his contradictions and uncertainties resulting from a time – late Sixteenth and early Seventeenth Centuries – that was gloomy and violent, but also filled with revolutionary discoveries. The show aims at retracing the plot of events presenting the many voices in the mind of Gesualdo, the discordant symphony of his conscious and of his passions, of his sublime compositions and of his killings.
