Madame Flora is terrified when she perceives a supernatural presence during one of her fraudulent s�ances. Menotti�s first international success, �� is a tragedy in two acts for five singers, a dance-mime role, and a chamber opera for thirteen instruments and fourteen players: flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horn, trumpet, percussion, piano (4 hands), and string quintet. The music is dissonant, eerie, and morbid and includes melodies such as �O, black swan.�
