Bussotti is best known for his extravagant graphic scores, but this masks the substantial nature of his musical achievement, heavily influenced by twelve-tone music and John Cage. The present graphic analysis may relate to Bussotti's Rara Requiem of 1969-70, which was later in a characteristic act of self-quotation integrated into his opera Lorenzaccio. The title plays on the name and initials of Bussotti's lover and collaborator Romano Amidei.
