the first European festival on creativity

2016 Programme

Event #38

Paolo Rumiz, Alessandro Scillitani

The voice of the road. Words, sounds and images gathered along via Appia

A travel story is like a musical score, where the beginning is the Ouverture . An acoustic event, designed for the ear and the voice, that carves vagabond words into the groove of the vinyl with the needle of voice. Paolo Rumiz tells of the wonderful and terrible, terrestrial and visionary adventure – through marvels and destruction – that unfolds along the oldest of European roads. Alessandro Scillitani describes its spaces through visual and audio productions accompanied live by the tracks he composed along his voyage  (Tommi Prodi, guitar, Stefano Ferrari, violin and bass, Marco Macchi, piano, Mimmo Fontana, drums). The itinerary is completed by wuotes from famous travelers, readings from the book Appia by Paolo Rumiz and an original score by Alfredo Lacosegliaz.
