The 2015 SDSU-CWM World Music Series
Musicantica: Music of Mediterranean Italy
MUSICàNTICA focuses mainly on the music from Southern Italy’s oral tradition, at the same time reaching out for a more contemporary musical idea that can be indicated as Mediterranean World-Music. By oral tradition is intended music, poetry, and ritual passed on from generation to generation by untrained musicians belonging to generally less-known segments of Italian society, such as the peasant’s world, fishermen, or street vendors.
Admission: $15 general/$12 students (advance purchase or at the door)
