    Catalogo_jazz_2010-def 16-12-2010 10:12 Pagina 1 Allonsanfàn il jazz di là dalle alpi 2010 QUINDICESIMA EDIZIONE Catalogo_jazz_2010-def 16-12-2010 10:12 Pagina 2 Quindici anni di Nuove Conversazioni Dopo quindici anni, “Vicenza Jazz” è più che una realtà consolidata: è un patrimonio della città e di tutto il territorio vicentino e veneto, oltre che un punto fermo nella geografia nazionale ed europea dei festi- val di primavera. Quando siamo partiti, nel ’96, pensavamo semplicemente di fare qualcosa di diverso, se possibile di significativo, qualcosa che in città non c’era e che, secondo noi, la città avrebbe apprezzato. 2 Certamente non pensavamo a quanta strada avremmo potuto fare ma non vi è dubbio che quindici anni di festival sembrano ora aver dato ragione alle intuizioni di allora. La nostra idea si chiamò “New Conversations”, nuove conversa- zioni, nuovi modi di parlarsi, di incontrarsi, di confrontarsi: nel jazz, nella musica, nella società e con tutti quelli che avevano voglia di mettersi in gioco per ritrovarsi in una Vicenza nuova, se possibile più europea. Così, ancora una volta, anche quest’anno Vicenza uscirà di casa, per le strade e nelle piazze, per entrare nei teatri e nei locali, nelle chiese e nei musei, nei cinema e ancora all’aperto. Il tutto, con uno scopo sostanzialmente semplice: guardarsi intorno, e dentro di sé, grazie all’unico linguaggio che non ha bisogno di traduzioni, quello della musica. E di tutte le musiche, il jazz è quella che da sempre più di tutte ha cercato nuovi incontri, senza il bisogno di traduttori, né di media- tori.

    the MARCHE region Discovering VADEMECUM FOR THE TOURIST OF THE THIRD MILLENNIUM Discovering THE MARCHE REGION MARCHE Italy’s Land of Infinite Discovery the MARCHE region “...For me the Marche is the East, the Orient, the sun that comes at dawn, the light in Urbino in Summer...” Discovering Mario Luzi (Poet, 1914-2005) Overlooking the Adriatic Sea in the centre of Italy, with slightly more than a million and a half inhabitants spread among its five provinces of Ancona, the regional seat, Pesaro and Urbino, Macerata, Fermo and Ascoli Piceno, with just one in four of its municipalities containing more than five thousand residents, the Marche, which has always been Italyʼs “Gateway to the East”, is the countryʼs only region with a plural name. Featuring the mountains of the Apennine chain, which gently slope towards the sea along parallel val- leys, the region is set apart by its rare beauty and noteworthy figures such as Giacomo Leopardi, Raphael, Giovan Battista Pergolesi, Gioachino Rossini, Gaspare Spontini, Father Matteo Ricci and Frederick II, all of whom were born here. This guidebook is meant to acquaint tourists of the third millennium with the most important features of our terri- tory, convincing them to come and visit Marche. Discovering the Marche means taking a path in search of beauty; discovering the Marche means getting to know a land of excellence, close at hand and just waiting to be enjoyed. Discovering the Marche means discovering a region where both culture and the environment are very much a part of the Made in Marche brand. 3 GEOGRAPHY On one side the Apen nines, THE CLIMATE od for beach tourism is July on the other the Adriatic The regionʼs climate is as and August.

  • Giovanni Allevi: Undefined & Unfettered. One Night….One Place
    news release Italian Cultural Institute 686 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10012 Tel. 212.879.4242 Fax 212.861.4018 email: [email protected] New York, April 21, 2006 Giovanni Allevi: Undefined & Unfettered. One Night….One Place The Blue Note—Monday, May 15, 2006, 8:00 pm & 10:30 pm In his first New York performance since two sold out shows at The Blue Note in March 2005, Italian composer/pianist Giovanni Allevi returns to the city that was the inspiration for his latest CD, No Concept (Sony BMG). Written over the course of a steamy New York summer, No Concept is as much the embodiment of a musical journey and philosophy as it is a visceral ode to the melting pot of culture, style and sound that we call New York. In the thirteen original compositions which make up No Concept, Allevi challenges himself and the listener to embrace tradition but not to be encumbered by it. The past is a base coat in the quest for a contemporary interpretation of our common human experience. As an artist, Allevi’s palette is rich and audible in the sounds and rhythms of classical, avant-garde, jazz, pop and rock traditions, but the canvas is set on end with every touch of the key. Claudia Di Meo of ANSA wrote, “his music strikes your heart, a witchcraft which leads the listener to a borderline, over a precipice made of accents….complicated metrics without ever being presumptuous….sometimes it is only a sweet caress which touches your body like the red velvet of a theatre.” Allevi’s musical journey began by stealing time, literally, at the piano.
