The figure of the Gypsy woman is linked to the
music in many different and often surprising ways.
For example, there’s the legend of Carmen, which
portrays this strikingly, as the castanets beat out
the rhythm and a seductive habanera plays, and
passions ignite. Based on the fantasy/visionary novel
by German Achim von Arnim, Isabelle of Egypt, and
director Erich von Stroheim’s Paprika saga, author-
narrator Luca Scarlini proposes a multifaceted cavalcade of this western culture icon.

The City of Milano hosts,
as part of the Festival MITO
SettembreMusica, the premiere of
Music Across. First edition
to be realized by the Assessorato alle
Culture, Identità e Autonomie della
Regione Lombardia in May 2009.
Music Across
"Music Across was born in Milano and will live there,
because it's Milano and the region of Lombardy, thanks
to a blend of creativity and business, that are responsible
for exporting excellence in Italian music. Today this happens
with some of the world's greatest performers and conductors,
in the past it was our composers and the tradition of melodrama,
and the legendary Teatro alla Scala. Plus masterpiece
instrument-making in Cremona, synonym of perfection."

The Musical Journey of the Gypsies
Central Europe:
nomadic songs and court music
The tradition of the Romanian bear trainers
Nadia and Napoléon Constantin
“Loki Gili” Hungarian songs
Kek Lang
Music from the Valacchia
Taraf de Bucarest
Nadia dances like an Egyptian queen and
Napoléon accompanies her on two small
drums. Here are the songs of the Hungarian Rom,
in which the body and especially the mouth are
transformed into actual musical instruments,
producing singular onomatopoeic polyrhythms.
The Lautari, professional Gypsy musicians,
spread through cities and countrysides the refined
quality and virtuosity of an art that has become
enriched over the course of each journey through
each region, from Valacchia to the outskirts of
Bucharest.
The brutal beauty of Romanian Gypsy
music provides the basis for an art that is at once
classical and folk.

Ken Scharf
Fulvio Albano
Quintet
Ken Scharf, trumpet
Fulvio Albano, saxophone tenor
Gianluca Tagliazucchi, piano
Aldo Zumino, bass
Alfred Kramer, drums
The quintet combines the experiences
of the two leaders, both of whom came
of age in big band environments. A
demonstration of the universality of
the language of jazz, here’s Scharf, who earned
his chops in the Ray Charles orchestra,
and Albano, soloist in Gianni Basso’s
Torino Jazz Orchestra. They encounter one
another on the turf of hard bop, one of
the most fecund periods in jazz history.
This concert features music by Clifford
Brown, Sonny Rollins, Art Blakey and
Horace Silver.
