Five events to recount 50 years of Italian songwriting and its connections with the Art, with guests from the fields of music, literature and journalism.
Every event, moderated by songwriter Edoardo De Angelis, is devoted to a decade, starting from the ‘60s up to the present day. With the help of musician Michele Ascolese and musicologist, critic and journalist Luciano Ceri, De Angelis asks the audience to embark upon a path of memory and knowledge in search of news, data and trivia to recount the world of Italian songwriting and its deep connection with all figurative arts.
On top of the screening of historical images, artworks, covers and live musical performances, each meeting is also accompanied by Il quadro di Assante, namely a moment of reflection (and a pill of wisdom) by journalist, music critic and radio and TV writer Ernesto Assante, who will provide the audience with his take on the changes, evolution or involution that Italian songwriting has undergone over the years
The first event is dedicated to the ’60s, starting with the historic performance of Modugno in Sanremo 1958 with Nel blu dipinto di blu, a real “revolution” and the starting point of the Italian author song of our time.
