A Composer

Inviting a composer to stay at the EccociQua Assisi Guest House could be the beginning of a symphony of success, or at least a relaxing holiday with a breathtaking view! Imagine a composer inspired by the tranquility and beauty of Assisi, sitting on the balcony with a notebook, while melodies float in the air along with the scent of freshly brewed coffee.

 

Music floats in the air of Assisi, a city that not only speaks to souls with its history and spirituality, but also sings through the notes of composers who have found refuge and inspiration within its ancient walls. Imagine a modern composer, searching for silence and beauty, who stumbles upon the "Guest House Eccociqua," a name that sounds like a warm and slightly quirky welcome, almost as if the house itself were ready to join in a duet.

This composer, whom we’ll call Maestro Allegro to keep an air of mystery (and because it sounds much better than “that guy”), has discovered that Assisi is not just a place of pilgrimage, but a sanctuary of creativity. The "Guest House Eccociqua" becomes his hermitage, a place where notes can dance freely without fear of disturbing the neighbors (because, let’s face it, who hasn’t had a neighbor knocking on the wall at the first overly enthusiastic E-flat?).

Maestro Allegro wakes up every morning to the song of birds and the sight of Assisi stretching under the sun like a lazy cat. He sits at his piano, strategically placed near a window overlooking the Umbrian hills, and lets his fingers come alive. Here, between an espresso and a cookie (because even composers need fuel), melodies are born that tell of time travelers, saints, and love stories that transcend the centuries.

But it’s not all work for our Maestro Allegro. Assisi offers distractions of all kinds, from meditative walks along the paths of St. Francis, to wine tastings that turn into impromptu jam sessions with local musicians. And then there are the restaurants, where every meal is a work of art and every dish is a prelude to a symphony of flavors.

And so, between a note and a sip of Sagrantino, Maestro Allegro finds his symphony, an ode to Assisi and its "Guest House Eccociqua." A composition that speaks of peace, laughter, and that magical feeling of being exactly where you’re meant to be. And perhaps, just like the stories of St. Francis, Maestro Allegro’s music will continue to resonate among these hills for centuries to come.

And you, dear readers, don’t you already feel the call of Assisi? Don’t you want to book a room at the "Guest House Eccociqua" and find out if you too can compose a symphony with your life? Who knows, maybe the next big hit will be "The Ballad of the Happy Tourist," inspired by one of those perfect, clear, and mild days that only Assisi can offer.
