Alongside this great and important musical production, in Italy, the phenomenon Canzone developed. These works are strongly concentrated on catchiness, not linked to complex stories, but to moments of life, to fleeting sensations and - above all - short pieces to be used outside the great theaters.

Similarly the Lied developed in Germany: we would say it is the German sister of the Italian song, with the following particular characteristics:
1 it was playable in the salons of the nobility and the bourgeoisie,
2 it was often instrumental, because that way, no singers were needed and so it could be performed by instruments, with accompaniment.

George Goltermann, was a cellist (as well as director of the Frankfurt Opera) who dedicated his production to this musical genre. Namely, he wrote small emotional pieces that aren't linked to any complex stories. Instead, they speak of moments, poems, paintings, memories.

Vito Paternoster orchestrated Goltermann's pieces, adapted to the most modern language, and arranged them to sound as though they were a single piece, as if they they described a journey through poems, memories and fragments of life.
