ALLERÍA! PINO DANIELE PROGETT’ brings out the sun of Naples in the middle of winter ! Their repertoire includes more than 30 songs by the great guitarist and singer Pino Daniele, in an acoustic arrangement. Each note takes us back to Naples… The quartet drifts us directly into the atmosphere of Posillipo, on the steep slopes of the omnipresent Vesuvius and straight to Mergellina beach ! Combining blues, jazz, and Latin sounds – the musical forms that strongly influenced Pino Daniele, who played with the greatest including Eric Clapton, Wayne Shorter, Pat Metheny, John Mclaughlin and Chick Corea …
Pino, who considered himself a musician first, was a true poet. His lyrics, endowed with a strong evocative power, express the thirst for life and love so dear to the peoples of the South. ALLERÍA! PROGETT’ performs an onstage reinterpretation and translation of Pino’s work in order to make his legacy more accessible to the French- and English-speaking public.
