Quadro
Janas - From the charm of the North to the
allure of the Mediterranean
|
|
Dorothee
Oberlinger, Lorenzo Cavasanti, Paola Erdas,
Lorenz Duftschmid, Bob van Asperen, Elisa
Citterio, Dominic Miller and many others
will take part in the Festival La
Musica e il Vento, which is being hosted,
for the third year in a row, by Pantellaria.
It is a wide-ranging musical event that
hopes to establish an important presence
on the international music circuit, as well
as creating a new attraction for the tourist
industry of the island, confirming its place
as a "cultural laboratory" in the middle
of the Mediterranean.

| Organized
by the Association "Amici di Pantelleria",
together with the Association "Epicantica",
and supported by the Sicilian Region, |
|
this third edition of the Festival coincides with
the Grand Tour Sicilia 2006, and offers a particularly
wide programme, ranging from early music in the
first four events, to jazz and music with ethnic
influences. The theme of the voyage, in which curiosity
and fascination stimulate the entry into new territories,
is the weft of a programme, whose warp develops
around the character of different kinds of flute.
Quadro Janas, which is the 'group in residence'
at the La Musica e il Vento, will open the Festival
with a new programme, devised for this event. This
is a voyage that, starting from England, follows
the Grand Tour through France, Germany and Italy,
which a young gentleman was supposed to take in
the 'flamboyant' Europe of the seventeenth century.
Research, improvisation, recollection and creativity
blend together in interpretations capable of passionate
lyricism and breathtaking virtuosity.

In
the Italian Summer of Festivals, the group will
also appear at another prestigious venue. On August
8th, at the Chiesa Vecchia of Belgirate, Quadro
Janas, together with soprano Lia Serafini, present
'Pasar Calles, Pasar Cortes' at the 'Settimane Musicali
di Stresa e del Lago Maggiore'. More detailed information
