Ouverture

On the floor, a magnified piano keyboard, of absolute verisimilitude in its duotone of white and black keys and in the background, its case, raised vertically with its strings, the hammers, reproduced in scale with precise fidelity. On the other showcase, there is still the development of the keyboard and a large opera score that magically comes alive with suggestions for the subject images projected on it.

The dummies rest on the keys, lowering some of them with their weight.
Some speakers placed outside broadcast the music whose notes are legible on the score.

The event alluded to and celebrated is the opening of the Teatro alla Scala season.
