LET’S KILL THE MOONLIGHT!
Silvia Schiavoni-voice, Giancarlo Schiaffini-trombone, Oscar Pizzo-piano, Antonio Caggiano, Fulvia Ricevuto, Gianluca Ruggeri-percussion
‘Let’s kill the moonlight!’, the creed of Italian Futurism, is also the title of this multimedia performance about the radical early 20th century art movement. The show was initiated by trombone player/composer Giancarlo Schiaffini, who took part in the first free jazz concerts in Italy and he has played quite a few contemporary compositions. Futurist music by Scelsi, Russolo and Pratella will be performed with the help of vocalist Silvia Schiavoni.
