The bells of Arquà Petrarca reimagined by Cities and Memory.

This piece takes the town of Arquà Petrarca's status as the home of Petrarch, transposing his famous poem "Sonetto a Laura" over the sounds of the bells, with multiple layers of ondes martenot linking the poem from the past with the bells of the present over the centuries.
