This enormous masterpiece of Sicilian painting has always enchanted me for the intense and very sweet expression of the face and hands of the Virgin, who, finding herself in front of the angel’s announcement, expressed the total yes of her. This attitude aroused in me the desire to write a piece inspired by this painting. I found myself immersed in the contemplation of the expression of the Virgin, which combined with my great faith, led me to describe with music, an intimate song, an expression of great mysticism and extreme sweetness.
