It is a laborious task that all the singers took on with great commitment; the results were commendable, especially with regards Luciana D'Intino and Dario Volonté. Daniele Callegari's conducting did justice to Zandonai's very clever orchestration, which draws on Strauss, Puccini, Ravel, Respighi, and Stravinsky, and he proved himself very much abreast of things; he also invents something new and personal, especially when he wants to obtain austere and cold atmospheres, which is the most interesting aspect of the opera.
La direzione di Daniele Callegari ha reso giustizia all'abilissima orchestrazione di Zandonai, che attinge a Strauss, Puccini, Ravel, Respighi e Stravinsky, dimostrandosi aggiornatissimo, ma inventa anche qualcosa di nuovo e personale, particolarmente quando vuole ottenere atmosfere scabre e fredde: è questo l'aspetto più interessante dell'opera.
