He always begins simply. First, the motif, the most important part. It can't be too long--no longer than the audience can remember. The motif sets the tone for the rest of the song, guides and shapes it. It's what the audience remembers most--it's the tune they hear in bed, half-asleep; it's the tune they hum to pass time; it's what they think of when they remember his song.
If the tale is adventurous, he starts with a riveting, lively tune; if the tale is tragic, he starts with a somber, mournful, foreshadowing melody. Then he adds the lyrics--that's Eco's gift with words. No need to prepare anything; his golden words flow like honey out of his mouth, without thinking.
He hasn't quite yet decided what Belca's song will be like, but he knows it will be his best work yet.
