    The three pieces structuring this work were written and rewritten over a ten-year period, from 1972 to 1982. I began to work on it from the time of my father’s death in June 1972. I finished the first version in about 1974 and later revised it several times until, between 1981 and 1982, I composed the definitive version.
    Although during the process of writing Graffiti, I always had my father’s death in mind, the content of the work revolves around the desolation in which modern society lives because of habits imposed by a few people exercising power. In a way, graffiti art expresses this rebellion against the system, creating a world of fantastic graphics to escape the oppression of everyday life.
    For this reason, probably, and with a certain degree of unconsciousness, the work cannot be ascribed to any particular form of musical structure. Instead it is a series of consecutive melodic, chordal and even rhythmic sketches that evolve, following their own impulse.
