RAVENNA, 25 MAY – What Daniele Silvestri has been handling for more than thirty years, since his debut album won the Premio Tenco, is considered an “author’s song”, often layered like the history of a territory, rich in melodies , rhythms, words, suggestions. On May 26, Ravenna Festival hosts the preview of its summer tour “Il cantastorie recidivo” (with the opening act of Casadilego) within the Romagna in fiore festival, the free and green events to rediscover the territory. The event is at Torraccia, on the outskirts of Ravenna, on the land owned by the oldest agricultural cooperative in the province, CAB TER.RA., whose generosity saved the city center from the advance of the waters last May, sacrificing hectares of cultivation land to drain the flood. The concert venue, reachable only on foot or by bicycle, will be accessible from 12. The recidivist storyteller, the live show that has taken up residence in Rome for thirty performances, leaves for a journey throughout Italy, celebrating its first thirty years of Daniele Silvestri’s career. The summer version, previewed at the Ravenna Festival, is more intimate and acoustic; Silvestri’s sensitivity in telling the stories of everyday life remains the same, addressing social and political issues in a direct and poetic way. Stories that described our country and those who live in it in a sincere, ironic and romantic way, thanks to a combination of talent, social commitment and stylistic versatility. (HANDLE).
