MAURIZIO DE GIOVANNI • JOE BARBIERI

Oscar Montalbano, manouche guitar

When you look at them side by side, it’s immediately clear that destiny has called writer Maurizio de Giovanni and composer Joe Barbieri to this fateful encounter. Both, in the past, have been observers of Neapolitan Song from different perspectives (though perfectly complementary). The two artists have now decided to unite their paths in “Ammore,” a show of words and music that tells the stories, the incomparable musicality, the authors, and the secret harmony of the love songs of the Great Neapolitan Tradition. Yes, love songs. Because it is love that we all continue to thirst for infinitely on this earth. And it is precisely love that Neapolitan songs eternally call out with a grace that remains unmatched to this day.
