Calabrian Nursery Songs and Rituals Reinvented
Attached to the deep meaning of song and the ecstatic power of music, Davide Ambrogio sees himself as part of the oral tradition of Aspromonte (Calabria, Southern Italy), where each sound and piece feeds a ritual. This singer and multi-instrumentalist from Calabria offer an immersive performance centred on the voice, alongside a lyre, pencil guitar, frame drum sumpettana, bagpipes and live electro. From lullabies to protest songs, Davide Ambrogio sweeps aside the conflict between tradition and modernity by placing the voice at the heart of the matter.
