I Viaggiatori play lively, old time Italian folk music from the 19th century and beyond. It`s romantic, poignant, frenzied ,sweet and earthy. It`s a place where memory sits down with imagination to share a good coffee and a glass of grappa then have a good yarn.
It`s also a place where accordions, clarinets, bouzoukis, mandolins and tambourines dance with sensual, earthy vocals.
Drawn from over 400 years of storytelling, these songs from Italy and Greece tell of harvests, war and revolution, factory protests, seductions, weddings, funerals and the brave act of migration. The rich melodies make your feet dance and heart sway with abandon.
They present music they performed for the silent Italian documentary Dall` Italia All` Australia.
