| Programme Note | Otranto is the Italian town where 813 inhabitants became martyrs in the 15th century as a result of being beheaded for refusing to relinquish their faith. That's bad enough, but just imagine being the 813th martyr on the list! The scene is depicted in this little piece. -Derek Ball, Aug 2013 |
