Concert with the Duo Franko Mettler, Thomas Weber

What began with "giro d'Italia" continues in "viaggio".
Franco Mettler, clarinet, and Thomas Weber, accordion, devote themselves entirely to Italian music in their concert program "viaggio". They take their audience on an imaginary journey through Italy. It starts in the 17th century in Cremona with Claudio Monterverdi's "si dolce é il tormento". Before going to Girolamo Frescobaldi in Rome, they make a short detour to the Bergamo Alps to Marco Uccellini, who has composed a wonderful piece with "Aria sopra la bergamasca". Further, but "direttissima", it goes off to the south. To Puglia, where the tarantella comes from. People bitten by the tarantula are said to have danced to it until they were completely exhausted in order to drive the spider's venom out of their bodies. Back in Rome, it's off to the "Cinecittà", the film studio complex where Federico Fellini first shot "La dolce vita" and then wrote other films and Nino Rota wrote the music for it. Lasciatevi sorprendere!
