"Silenziosa luna" is a quotation from Giacomo Leopardi's poem Canto notturno di un pastore errante dell'Asia.

Description edit

The album includes works written by Forlivesi between 1999 and 2008. The 28-page booklet reflects the artistic and cultural concerns of the team about the recording, and the liner notes provide information about the musicians and lyrics and give details on the extent of each musical work, placing them in cultural and creative contexts. They were written in Italian originally and directly translated into Japanese and English, respectively by Japanese musicologist Mariko Kanemitsu and British composer/poet Jeremy Drake. Japanese jiuta-mai dancer Sayuri Uno, American academic Laura Hein (Northwestern University) and Italian philosopher Marco Forlivesi (University of Padua) also made a significant contribution to this process.

The instrumental techniques developed on purpose for these works are highly demanding. 24bit/96 kHz recording technology is employed.

The photograph on the album cover is a shot taken by Carlo Forlivesi and Sayuri Uno in Shisen-dō and represents a round Tsukubai enhanced by natural shadows and reflections. It is a non-processed image, and has sprinkled silver and gold colors, resembling maki-e making. The disc fits the photo.
