“Norn” is a rock opera, in the tradition of the group Phaedra. The concept was developed on a story of the Gothic genre, written by Claudio Bonvecchio, entitled “The Prisoner”.

The title NORN refers to the three deities of Norse mythology, who oversee the destinies of humanity. The music reflects the different moments narrated by the lyrics on the legacy of the progressive genre with the use of both electric and acoustic instruments; for the first time in the history of the group, female opera singing also appears.
