Info for The Persistence of Mystery

The Persistence of Mystery is NOVA’s 3rd album and contains six original compositions written by Christian Zatta and arranged by NOVA. The whole album is inspired by astronomical mysteries.

All pieces remind the listener to phenomena of which we are not sure, which we only partially understand or which are a paradox.

These astronomical phenomena represent very well what we have experienced in the last three years: all the certainties and expectations have been demolished and replaced by reality.

A reality that we still don’t fully understand, but we all have to deal with in the best possible way, always adapting to the situation and finding a solution.
