“It’s easy to understand why the most beautiful poems about England in the spring were written by poets living in Italy at the time.”

“Opera once was an important social instrument—especially in Italy. With Rossini and Verdi people were listening to opera together and having the same catharsis with the same story, the same moral dilemmas. They were holding hands in the darkness. That has gone.

—Luciano Berio (b. 1925)
