The medium  is a short tragic opera in two acts for which the music and libretto were written by  Gian Carlo Menotti . This musical tragedy focuses on spiritualism and tells the story of a fake psychic whose sudden encounter with the unknown leads to chaos and murder, all set to powerful music similar to a dramatic recitative written for an orchestra of fourteen musicians.
