Nat Geo Music Live: Musica Per L'ambiente

Starts: Tuesday April 22, 2008 04:06 PM

Schedule: 2008-04-22

Organizer: Nat Geo Music

Venue: Piazza del Campidoglio

Location: Rome, Italy

On the 22nd of April, starting at 8.00 PM some of the most creative artists of the Italian and international scene, will perform live music for the Roman public. The goal is not only to entertain Romans, but also to make them aware of environmental issues and to engage them in adjusting their personal behaviors to take care of the planet.

The concert will be opened by an emerging star of the Italian musical panorama, Saba, who stirs POP r’ n b with sounds of Africa and, in particular, of the earth where she has grown, Somalia. Then the Sud Sound System will perform their particular mix of local music and rhythms made in Jamaica. We will remain in Salento, with the performance of the Nidi d’Arac with their blend of folk music of South Italy in a modern key. Their performance will be supported by the Tamburellisti of San Rocco. Then it is time for one legend of music, Cesaria Evora. The singer of Cabo Verde will prove her class and elegance, that have created her reputation as the Queen of “morna”: the style that fuses African percussions with Portuguese fado and Brazilian music. The concert will be concluded by another great Italian artist: Vinicio Capossela.

The concert will be aired on Lifegate Radio and, streaming, on www.natgeomusic.it. The event of Nat Geo Music will be characterized by the presence of great artists and for being an eco-sustainable event. In fact, with Impact Zero® of LifeGate, all the CO2 emissions caused by the concert will be off-set through the creation of new forests in Costa Rica.
