The idea for Girotondo is taken from the play of the same name written by Arthur Schnitzler. Like the characters in Schnitzler's text, here the musicians are invited to take part in a series of dialogues in pairs, so as to form a chain, a roundabout: the first with the second, the second with the third, until the last one joins the first, closing the circle. The musicians have been matched by lot to a theater character, so that the duets are the random result. Fazio acts as a guest, an external narrator to the couples, elaborating an electronic introduction that represents the scenic space in which the encounters develop, and a final roundabout in which everyone is involved.

Personnel: Enrico Fazio - project, double bass, electronics; Mario Arcari - oboe; Giancarlo Locatelli - bass clarinet; Alberto Mandarini - trumpet; Francesco Aroni Vigone - alto sax; Valeria Sturba - theremin; Adalberto Ferrari - contrabass clarinet; Gianni Virone - flute; Gianpiero Malfatto - euphonium; Emanuele Parrini - violin; Marco Tardito - baritone sax.
