situations of their lives, are the background of this Opera on Pythagoras and Pythagoreanism.
The beginning of Pythagoreanism and what is considered its end (Johannes Kepler) intersect
in temporalities and parallel events interspersed by characters who embody their own speech
in their voices but also the speech of others (Pascal in the voice of Pythagoras, Wolfgang Pauli
in Kepler's voice, etc.).

voices, we still have sound-characters: the “Neutrino sounds” and the “Universe sounds”,
which never again reappear in the same way; the first, associated with micro particles, the
nervous system, stress, neurosis, tinnitus, oppression, drama; the second, with the macro-
Universe, the heartbeat and the blood circulation, the appeased cosmic contemplation, the
reflective thought, the humanism, the pleasure. It even sends us to the episode of John Cage
when he enters an anechoic chamber, where all sound should be absent, to hear inside himself
a very high pitched sound and a very low one... And there was not, even there, any silence.

intriguing tiny particles, discovered at the end of the first half of the twentieth century by
Wolfgang Pauli, traveling almost at the speed of Light and in a straight line, crossing all bodies,
and, because they do not have an electric charge, they go through everything without almost
interacting with anything.

without the neutrality that typifies this particle. By the vastness of his echoes, his influence,
