about

"The Witches of Montenerodomo" is a Radio Drama work based on the short story "Le Streghe di Montenerodomo" by Monica Miuccio, published by Keltia Editrice in 1996. Bernard Clarke adapted the text to suit the idea of Radio Art and narrated it with his distinctive and unique style.

"The members of an archaic community embody their fears of the natural calamities that hit them in a manifestation of Devil: Witches. The people engage in a fight against them revealing that their superstition is not rooted in mere ignorance, but in a pre-Christian belief that their isolation has preserved, and that now lives side by side with the Word of Gospel. But more than prayers and magic can their sense of unity. Relying on each other in a circle of strength they defeat the witches in the very same moment they defeat fear. Even when the witches have gone, so strong is their belief in their actions to shape history to their creed, turning reality into a legend" (Monica Miuccio)

It is an All-Analogue piece as it was created by manipulating voices and percussion in real time with an analogue modular synthesizer. Filters, Effects, Panning were controlled by CV motion sensor devices and pedals.
