Playing on instruments which belong together as a Quartet has also been an enriching experience for us, as we are now able to better adapt our sound to one another." - Fanny Anaïs Schell, violinist of Alinea Quartet

"By mixing reality and fiction, it plunges us into the story of two young people who face suffering and obstacles and learn to walk anyway, in the rain and snow of a time they did not choose, that they did not imagine, that they would have liked to be different. A time in which everything is a challenge, and therefore everything is life."

All proceeds from sales of "Vorrei entrare nel sole" will be donated to Fondazione Il Bullone to support the project
