“CANTANDO L’ITALIA”

The “Concerto/Spettacolo” show was officially inaugurated in Warzaw (Poland) in October, 2003, in the framework of the celebrations for the “Week of the Italian Language”, organized by the Embassy of Italy (Ambassador Di Leo) and the Italian Institute of Culture (Director Prof. Triscali).
The concert has been filmed by the two Polish public TV Broadcasting Networks and was fully successful, according to the public and the critics.

Through the best songs of the Italian popular music, I like to involve the public, in order to make even brighter the emotions which some pieces provoke in our souls.
This is what I mean when I talk about “Concerto/Spettacolo”: as an actress, as a singer, and above all as a woman, I stage the enchanting seduction which the Italian language is able to bring to our feelings, through sings and poems. It is a path which will lead us to Naples, my Motherland, and to the Neapolitan “canzone”: a historical, magical, involving, international alchemy of sounds and lyrics which are of incomparable appeal.

I start inviting the public to follow me in this travel all over Italy listening to Paolo Conte’s “Via con me”, going on with Fred Buscaglione’s seduction of “Buonasera Signorina”, or Vittorio De Sica’s “Parlami d’amore Mariù”, or perhaps the charme of “Caruso”. We will remember Anna Magnani by “Comme è bello fa’ l’amore quanno è sera” and Renato Rascel by “Arrivederci Roma”.

We will sing a woman’s love with “Grande, grande, grande” and “E se domani”. At the end, we will reach my land with the Neapolitan classics, such as Carosone’ swing in “Nun è peccato”, “Anema e core” and “Torna a Surriento” and many many other songs, in order to travel into our soul’s heart and into our memories, and perhaps say goodbye dreaming that we are flying (“Volare”!) towards …“O sole mio”!
