"U mundu drentu a ti" is a symphonic poem in seven movements for soprano voice and wind band written in 1997. The text is by Carla Correddu and is written in the Carlofortinian dialect, one of Sardinia¹s cultural treasures. The composition is in seven movements which flow into one another:

1. "So near and so far"
2. "Scented air"
3. "Turquoise sea"
4. "Within you"
5. "Seagulls and falcons"
6. "Silver beam"
7. "So far and so near"

The world within you
Hierakon (*), the world so near and so far
Where time flows differently
Immersed in a biting and scented air
White seagulls circle the sky
Royal falcons scream from high cliffs
And a turquoise sea penetrates into deep throats
A sudden silver beam illuminates
the boundless expanse
And, above separates this Hierakon
from another
So far and so near, within you

*Hierakon is the Greek name of the little Saint Peter island, an almost magical word used to refer to a very near and, at the same time, very distant world
