Italian term or phrase: nel segno della musica immortale
[il maestro] disegnerà sublimi arabeschi nel segno della musica immortale tra gli stucchi dorati e le decorazioni sontuose della Fenice - in a tourist magazine

I've seen the term "segno della musica" a number of times. Sometimes it's used as if it were an astrological sign. It is even the title of a book on musical semiotics. However I don't know how to render it here. Thanks for any suggestions!

Explanation:
Hi ldimeglio
The term here is "nel segno di". It roughly means "in the spirit of", but I would move away from the Italian anyway.
