The sound is an interesting Iberno-Mediterranean fusion. 
Each performance is a great cultural experience, a journey to the mystic lands of the ancient Celts, 
where everyone is carried away through music, 
movements and images. 
Maria and her musicians are able to enchant their 
listeners, to let their enthusiasm to run away, so 
that they can perceive the emotion of fantasy 
flights and intense moments. 
Songs are characterized by breathtaking 
arrangements realized by M° Francesco Oliviero, 
fascinating soprano voice, magical and melancholic 
orchestra notes; accompanied by soft and incisive 
arpeggios, the energy of violin’s notes, and finally by 
the rhythm and colours of percussions. 
English and Latin languages, such as Celtic ballads, 
are typical of any piece. 
Principum, the album is 
the beginning of the journey. 
A passage from the memory and the deep resonances of the soul, to a new world. 
Starting with "Principium", 
﻿the first track of the album 
of which takes same title, 
﻿​arriving to "Adventus" - the arrival, 
when finally the predominant theme of the work evolves to touching and sensual sonorities.

Low mischief is the process, the change, the dialogue between sounds, feelings and ideas of different nature, that sometimes are opposite. Once having met, they can not but continue to influence each other. A computer programmer and a psychologist from Italy, who share the same musical language, have given rise to this dialogue, made of atmospheres that transcend the concept of category, until the dissolution of the limits into which we usually force time, space, art and science. This "mischief” give life to something that is intended to be permanently changing. Thus, classical and modern, human and non-human, artificial and organic, are no longer distinguishable, in a melting and metamorphosis process that can not but assume unexpected implications.
