The opening of the season is around the eclectic and brilliant figure of Boris Vian with Cristina Zavalloni, great interpreter of international character accompanied by Pietro Tonolo on saxophone and Paolo Birro on piano, in a show of songs and poetry.
“The approach with Boris Vian amazes because of the many facets of his complex and fascinating figure – says one of the authors of the show, Luca Bulgarelli – Vian is the total artist so dear to the historical avant-gardes of the twentieth century and surrealism, is the ‘intellectual cultured and disenchanted of French existentialism, is the extravagant musician of the first rebel music.”
To evoke the rich world of the writer there will be Pietro Tonolo, one of the best known jazz saxophonists, Paolo Birro an appreciated jazz pianist and the amazing voice of Cristina Zavalloni, composer and performer with a multifaceted personality.
