Diocese: Asti, Saturday at the “Caffè con Lode” a meeting with Valerio Ciprì, among the founders of the musical group “Gen Rosso”

The celebrations for the 40 years of the Sacred Heart parish continue in the diocese of Asti. On Saturday 20 April the “Caffè con Lode” will have a special guest. This is Valerio Ciprì known as “Lode” among the founders of the musical group “Gen Rosso”, guitarist, composer and author of lyrics and songs including the very famous “Stay here with us”.
The meeting between music and narration in which the Sacred Heart parish choir and the San Domenico Savio family choir will also participate, will be held at 9pm in the Sacred Heart parish.
“The ‘Caffè con Lode’ program aims to tell stories and life experiences that inspired the composition of some of the group’s most representative songs. How many experiences, how many adventures, how much life in the incredible number of songs born in 55 years lived in the Red Gen – explains Don Rodrigo Limeira, parish priest of the Sacred Heart -. In a family atmosphere, as if sitting in front of a fragrant cup of coffee, let’s sit down to listen to the profound, and sometimes incredible, stories that lie at the roots of these songs.”

The appointment is at 3.30 pm at the Fruttuoso park in via Mattarella, with the bishop of Asti, mons. Marco Prastaro.
