Di Cristofaro, Francesco - Pacienza, Pane E Tempo

The work is conceived as a sonic tribute to writer and intellectual Leonardo Sciascia, and to his radical investigation of power, violence and dissent within the historical framework of the Spanish Inquisition in Sicily. At the core of the album lies the story of Fra Diego La Matina, an Augustinian friar from Racalmuto who, in 1658, killed his inquisitor Juan Lopez de Cisneros after enduring years of imprisonment, torture and trials.
