At Trianon Viviani, 'Napule's Power' for the flood victims of Faenza

On Saturday 14 October, a large charity concert, featuring the major players on the Neapolitan music scene, will open the season at the Teatro della Canzone napoletana.

The event, curated by Renato Marengo and Lello Savonardo, in collaboration with the Meeting of Independent Labels, is dedicated to Giovanbattista “Giogiò” Cutolo

“Napule's Power” mobilizes for the flood victims of Faenza and inaugurates the season of the Trianon Viviani with a great concert.

Next Saturday, October 14th, at 21 pm, the major protagonists of the Neapolitan music scene will gather in the Teatro della Canzone napoletana to give life to a unique charity evening dedicated to Giovanbattista “Giogiò” Cutolo, the young horn player who was recently killed.

To inaugurate the Trianon Viviani program, curated by Marisa Laurito, on the Trianon Viviani stage will play Eugenio Bennato – Taranta Power, Giovanni Block, Maurizio Capone, Tony Cercola, Roberto Colella (the Mask), Enzo Decaro, Tony Esposito, Enzo Gragnaniello, Jovine, Lucariello, Ciccio Merolla, Pietra Montecorvino, Antonio Onorato, Jenny Sorrenti, Patrizio Trampetti and Marco Zurzolo.

With the artistic direction of Renato Marengo and Lello Savonardo, in collaboration with the Mei – Meeting of Independent Labels, directed by Giordano Sangiorgi, which for almost thirty years has hosted and promoted new emerging music in Italy in Faenza, the concert aims to help support over thirty local businesses that were severely damaged by the environmental cataclysm that devastated Emilia – Romagna last June. The entire proceeds of the evening, net of technical expenses, will therefore go to the musicians of Faenza and the musical businesses that were hit by the floods through Audiocoop, the trade association born within the Mei, and the Municipality of Faenza, which have already collected tens of thousands of euros.

Even though they were unable to attend due to previously made commitments, many other artists from Napule's Power wanted to give their support: 'A67, Enzo Avitabile, Raiz, Dario Sansone from Foja, James Senese and Napoli Centrale, Lino Vairetti and Osanna and Fausta Vetere and the Nccp.

Alfredo Tisocco and Donella Del Monaco of Opus Avantra, particularly close to the problems of Emilia Romagna and linked to Napule's Power, have generously contributed to the technical expenses, for the amplification and the lights. They have been guests at the Mei several times with performances and presentations of their recordings, for which they received the Lifetime Achievement Award.

Finally, Mavv – Museo Arte Vite e Vino and the Youth Observatory of the Federico II University of Naples collaborated.

With Napule's Power for Faenza, the complex program of the Trianon Viviani opens, composed of sixty shows, musical and theatrical, collected in seven sections. The participants include big names of Neapolitan music and young Neapolitan singer-songwriters, well-known faces of theater and cinema, as well as international artists. In addition to the inevitable in-depth study on the work of Raffaele Viviani, to whom the theater of Forcella is dedicated, the new program hosts a special space dedicated to stand up comedy, with Italian comedians with a large following on social media.

The Trianon Viviani benefits from the support of the Ministry of Culture and the Campania Region (ordinary funds and Poc 2014-2020), with the patronage of Rai Campania.
