La Grotta de la Sibilla Atto I: l'arrivo a l'hostaria.
Track 2 from the album "Fra li Monti Sibillini (Black Medieval Winter over the Sibylline Mounts)".
This track is the 1st act out of 3 talking about the legend of Appennine Sibylla: the knight Guerrin Meschino arrives to the tavern asking how to reach the cave of Sibylla. The innkeeper, scared, tries to dissuade him.
The entire album is a Medieval journey through the Sibylline Mounts (Monti Sibillini), mountains located in the center-east of Italy (region of Marche, Hesperus' native land), full of obscure legends and really dark history, a sort of Carpathian Mounts in Italy: heretics, witches, alchemists, necromants, goat fairies, obscure villages/mountains/gorges, the inquisition and... the sorceress Sibylla. In this places, truth and myth are woven together.
Music & lyrics by Hesperus except for the medieval saltarello at min. 3:26 played by Hesperus and written by an anonimous during the 14th century.
