Founded by
Andrea Capezzuoli, melodeon player,
composer and arranger active on Milan music scene for over fifteen
years (din delon, musicanta, la magiostra, picotage, terantiqua), in
cooperation with the sax by Luca Rampinini, the
guitar by Mattia Ghion and the fiddle by
Marco Ghezzo. It is a polyhedrical project that ranges from
the European folk dances to the music of Quebec, the French-speaking
Canada (a kind of mélange between the Irish and Celtic folk and the
French song of Breton-Vendéean origin).
The result
is an explosive cocktail, frisky, convivial: accordions, fiddle,
sax, piano, guitar and vocals accompanied by driving foot tapping,
the typical percussion that gives a unique touch to this sound.
On the occasion of dance courses and dance concerts the band is also
supported by two "callers", Ivano Capelli and
Nicola Brighenti, as
masters of ceremony, indicating the
dance figures.
This band line-up has already played in
Italy,
Germany
Belgium
and France
receiving unanimous approval both from critics and audience
(Leipzig, Rudolstadt, Bruxelles, Le Mans, Lyon, Mulhouse, Lavelfolk, Isolafolk, Appennino folkfest,
Zingaria, Capodanze, Medtrad).
