SynopsisDid an Italian monk, out of a burning love of music, invent a time machine in this century -- a machine that would extend his senses Far back into time? According to Mr. Krassa, Father Alfredo Pellegrino Ernetti, born in 1926 and who died mysteriously in 1996, developed the apparatus over a period of 40 years. Ernetti, a professor of Archaic Music, was obsessed with the notion of finding out what an Old Roman opera, Thyestes, sounded like when played with musical instruments of that period. Driven by his passion, he developed a theoretical basis so brilliant he was able to gather a team of distinguished scientists who would bring life to his time machine, The Chronovisor.
