From the regions of Campania, Apulia, Molise some of the greatest creations of the popular music joined together in the name of the southern Italian culture: Fanfara populara , it traces the atmospheres of the traditional Apulia bands, it mix with the ancestral sound of the Molise bagpipe of Pietro Ricci and the magic of the frame drums of Triotarantae ,the pulling power of the female voices of the group Le Assurd. It all links with the voice of Giovanni Mauriello……all in line with the tammurriate , tarantella and the feeling that the soul of the south of Italy , often depressed but never prone and surrendered. It is the powerful attraction of the spirit of the south.
