This year too, the evening-event dedicated to the celebration of the Romagna dialect that La Musica nelle Aie organizes in collaboration with the weekly Setteserequi arrives in Imola. An opportunity to savor all the artistic variations of the language of our fathers, from prose to poetry, from song to theatre. Not a conference nor a conventional show, but a real performative reading, which will have as its common thread the present and future of a dialect which, in reality, is anchored to its roots but evolves more than ever.
“Scor cum ut à insigné tu mé! To Iomla!” will take place on Friday 14 June 2024 at 9.15pm at the Fiera del Santerno in Imola (parking with shuttle in via Pirandello)
At the fair, poets, musicians, singers, actors, scholars, speakers and simple lovers of the Romagna dialect will be called to the microphone. Coming from the Ravenna countryside will be Rudy Gatta and Eliseo Dalla Vecchia, exponents of different generations united by a passion for the language of their fathers and the highest vernacular poetry, the narrator from Modigliani Alberta Tedioli, expert in mountain dialects and ironic observer of the present, the Faenza singer-songwriter Fabrizio Caveja Barnabé, proud guardian of suggestions and words that come directly from rural Romagna, but we will also listen to the hilarious country-dialect songs of Cico det and Bel, from the Lugo dialect, with his partner in crime Mary Grace. Then, the Imola poet Carlo Falconi will play at home and will present himself as a singer-songwriter, with the “I Balconi” project, with his painful and pungent moods. For the musical part, Pietro “Quinzan” Bandini could not be missing, a point of reference for the Romagna folk revival of recent years, as well as artistic director of this evening and of La Musica nelle Aie in Castel Raniero. Then there will also be the actor and poet from Cassanigo Alfonso Nadiani and, from Rimini, Francesco Gabellini, with his acute and very funny verses.
