From balconies to squares: 'Bella Ciao' is the anthem of social justice, a song of freedom, peace, hope and brotherhood. It was sung in the squares of every country, on demonstrations for civil rights, against oppression and tyranny. It was heard from the balconies and windows of Italian cities when they had to close themselves in, in a necessary and unexpected confinement. So let's resume the journey of this new Bella Ciao in a new version, with new rhythms (tamurriata, ballo tondo, pizzica), melodies born of Mediterranean influences, poetry, more lyrical in the love songs and more raw in the songs of revolt. 'A Sud di Bella Ciao' looks at a very rich path where history is combined with magic and legend, rituals awakens the peasant world and sensuality mixes with struggle.
