The Teatro Franco Parenti has now produced the clarinet player’s Italian version of the show Nothing but music with five international musicians and six Italian actors. A cosmopolitan theatrical, musical, singing, and dancing experience, the show is a journey around the world and throughout the 20th century, passing through the places of Giora Feidman’s life. More than one hundred years of emotions, music, places and faces from Moldavia to Buenos Aires, from Shanghais to Bagdad. The Klezmer players, nomadic musicians exiled from Eastern Europe, draw lymph and inspiration from their wandering around the world, animated by desire and hope in desperation. Klezmer music is founded on musical contaminations coming from all around the world, from jazz to tango, passing through the sounds of oriental music and German folk. The Nothing but Music journey starts and ends in a museum, a place where objects are kept to revive memory and hope. |
