The siren of Naples

According to myth, Naples was founded on the beach where the siren Parthenope was washed ashore. Vinicio Capossela traces this legend in his programme »Parthenope and other Sirens. From port to port«. Accompanied by his ensemble at the »Viva Napoli« festival, he sings about the beguiling mythical creatures in his incomparable way, with ingenious lyrics and catchy music. Instead of limiting himself to one genre, he combines Italian folk music, tango and fado with rock and pop, sings ballads, love songs and shanties. For him, sirens are also songs that wander from port to port and bring different cultures into dialogue: Mediterranean flair meets Nordic freshness.

Suonno D’Ajere adds to Capossela’s show a Neapolitan touch with its ensemble made of three instruments dialoguing and humoring each other, running in countertempo through a sought-after repertoire of genres: from serenata to »tear-jerking« song, from macchietta to unpublished composition.

Please note: Enzo Avitabile has unfortunately had to cancel the concert for reasons of ill health. The Italian singer Vinicio Capossela is performing instead. Tickets remain valid, but can also be returned. Ticket purchasers and subscribers to »Around the World« has been informed of the change by email.
