Interview with Elio

Interview with Elio exit to the Umbria Courier on Saturday, November 20.

Elio Gian Gale. The show, directed by Lina Wertmuller, which will conclude tomorrow evening at Morley the 2010 Festival of Imagination is the title, but the concept is a bit 'reductive. Why Elio, if anything, is even Gian Gale. In the show, first, where, accompanied by his quintet of experienced musicians, plays all the main characters of the story written by Vamba one hundred years ago and passed. And then, of course, out of the show. Just turn on the TV, take a ride on the Internet: Elio here, Elio beyond. A theater with Wertmuller, X-Factor, was still at the theater with ... tourists. The suffer a bit ', stress?

"Of course there are many things," he says. "But it's my choice, I can not help it. Besides, I'm used to when I was little. The school, music college, I was always two or three things simultaneously. But a month off and I'll take a little 'off. "

early Tuesday ended your first experience as a judge X-Factor. "I go because it is one of the few ways to talk about music on television, and things need to be changed from within," had more or less said in the beginning. Now that we're almost at the end you think you have succeeded, to change a little 'things?

"It is clear that not all change in an instant. But even just looking at the singers of my team I think we did something. One Nevruz as, for example, had not never seen before. Like it or not, hath been imposed. And thanks to him we were able to bring in a prime piece of area, Ivan Graziani, Rino Gaetano. The Ballet of bronze, which was not discussed for forty years. Even a song from a film by Pasolini. Nathalie And then also going strong. Even with her we see something new. Joni Mitchell sang, his novel is great. It appears that you have suddenly discovered that television can sing beautiful songs. "

And a poll by SWG for Donna Moderna reveals that you are the most popular judge.

"I do not know what is trusted. In my opinion, for example, is the most beloved Mara. And if I'm interested in little, of course. But it is a signal: it is not true what they say, the public wants quality. "

rifarai The X-Factor?

"First we need to see if it builds on the Rai. In times like these, with the money missing, I have my serious doubts. That said, if you refer, I do it again. I liked the experience. Especially in the last two weeks. "

In television, however, sometimes even unable to go out X-Factor. Dandini by talking to me, for example. Your musical parodies are brilliant. Get the Waka Waka-Bunga Bunga. One imagines there in the morning and read the papers and decide to redo that song, and how to do it again. And in the evening, the piece is ready, and perfect. But how do you succeed?

"A few hours before transmission we sit with the writers, says the news and see what we get to work on the song. And the Waka Waka was not the best thing we've done, I think. Simply put, the topic was on everyone's lips, so it was a great success. "

Chapter Gian Gale. As the idea?

"Six or seven years ago I acted in a play of Wertmuller. At one point, talking about, she reveals that not only was the director of TV drama with the Peacock, but he also wrote all the songs, set to music by Nino Rota's great. Over the shock, I immediately had the idea of \u200b\u200ba show where you sing all the songs together. After a few years I have offered to Lina, and she accepted it enthusiastically. Judging by the audience who comes to see us, how is it and what is involved and happy, it works. It is a further confirmation that the public likes nice things. In fact, wants them. We are propose so appealing. Remaining on the gourmet, we say that not just use good ingredients. Must be cooked and served properly. That's what I try to do. "

But there's more Rita Pavone Vamba or more, in your Giannino Stoppani?

"I would say third, third and third. There is and there is Vamba Pavone. But there is also a bit 'of mine. "

few months you fifty years. Think about it already?

"Very. It is not at all nice. But I console myself thinking that when I was small it was almost a fifty years old. Now fifty years we can do things unthinkable. And then, if there are those who at seventy still goes to women - and how! - There is hope for the future. "

Interview with Mario Martone

Interview with Mario Martone exit to the Corriere Umbria today.

Martone tonight will Imaginary Festival. Present his We believed at the Zenith, 20.30.

We believed is a case of the cinema market. Why do not often let the audience decide so directly and specifically the fate of a film. It was released in thirty copies in a few days it did a bang, with queues at cinema box office and who do not know where to put the people, and so the distribution company should run for cover. Result: even on the weekend will be put into circulation many more copies. The market did not justify more than thirty, say to 01, stable company RAI Cinema. Mario Martone, with his film the Risorgimento, the market has defied, and came out the winner.

Tonight Martone will be at Perugia, the host of imaginary Festival. We believed present at the Zenith, 20.30, together with Enrico Ghezzi and actress Francesca Inaudi. Reacts with satisfaction the increase in copies, not in anger.

"will be missed. Moreover, the story of this film was very long and tormented. We have always moved with great difficulty. All: I, the actors, the troupe. We wanted to hold on, despite the circumstances, although sometimes arrive on time someone told us to give up, that money is not enough, you could not anymore. We have not given up, and here we are. This rock distribution is almost a physiological thing. "

But was it really so difficult to realize that thirty copies could not be enough?

"those of Rai I understand them. In fact, the market had a point. But what happened to this beautiful, this tilting set up by the spectators. It was a sort of enlargement of that 'we' that hath been extended by concentric circles who has designed the film to those who have achieved, and finally to them. And there's one more thing I want to say. "

Please.

"This is a useful and important signal to all those who make film and theater without wanting to bend the standards to trade. Sometimes courage is bent. "

Can you explain, however, this reaction of the public? The film will definitely be nice, but just as surely not enough that a movie is good to get a hit like that.

"Sure. I threw the two elements. First, it is an ensemble film, with many actors in thickness. It seems to say the least, and instead I'm sure that people have just the pleasure of going to see them all together. Then there is the issue in question. The history and the birth of our country, of course, interested in many, whatever people may say. At this time, then. "

We believed is a film that was head man of the South, inevitably. Do you think that would have been different if he had Men's North?

"Absolutely. But you see, it is important not to fall in facilitating North-South relations. The film sees the impact on the masses of the Piedmontese army, the idea emerges as the unification of Italy annexation of the South. At the same time show the partisans as a chorus of different dialects, genuine cases of people. In short, it dissects the issue from the political point of view, not caricaturist, or even racial. I am convinced that North and South can understand, you can love. I love the North, very much. There is a widespread feeling that the beauty of Italy lies in its diversity. As to the Risorgimento, I repeat, the problem was political, the problem was in opposition to the republican hypothesis, then materialized, authoritarian monarchy. The key north-south is not enough.

Interview with Tommaso Cerasuolo - Disturbed

Following the public version of the interview with Tommaso Cerasuolo, lead singer of Disturbed, output in the reduced form Courier Umbria today. Where, however, it is said that the concert is tonight at the Skylab Terni. A serious typographical error, which I apologize. The concert, in fact, is tomorrow, Saturday, November 13.

Ah, Perturbazi one. Great band. Pop-rock polite and intelligent, very rare commodity in our country. Saturday night the sound of Skylab Terni, which by the way is also a great place to hear a concert. The tour follows robbed of our time, the band's fifth studio album came out last spring in Piedmont, which marks a return to an independent label (Santeria) after the troubled experience with EMI, which lasted no coincidence that the only time Pianissimo Fortissimo 2007. A double album, consisting of twenty-four songs. Crazy stuff, almost. But just listen to understand why Disturbance did not want to discard even a song are all good. And above all seem urgent and necessary.

"It's so," says the singer Tommaso Cerasuolo. "In recent work we were very closed in on ourselves. There was a whole series of mutual vetoes that had come out a very sound 'average' as a prototype of the 'sound disturbance'. In any event, a round lot of stuff. So at some point we said we wanted to feel more free. We wanted more edges. When we devote ourselves to projects in parallel, we succeed, so why we should not with the disturbance? You been a long time, when we revised our method of composition. Before the texts we wrote them almost just me and Gigi (Giancursi, guitarist, ed), Who have put their hands all this time. Just as the melodies. And the result satisfies us very much. "

course a double-disc EMI you would have done it difficult to do.

"I do not know. You know, the problem with them was all in the way of working. There was this atmosphere of constant 'is the crisis', 'everything goes wrong', again, to bandage the head. We did not like. And they obviously did not like too us. But that's okay. That said, I do not think that independence is a flag to carry, a ghetto in which confined. We would not mind to reach a wider audience. But not at any condition. "

When released into the circulation in 2002 the word "indie" in Italy rhymed almost exclusively with "rock". That rough and Afterhours Marlene Kuntz, the electronic Subsonica. Your record was an isolated case. Today, we hear a lot more stuff to your pop-rock, to use two words in a label that can identify your music. What has changed?

"Look. First, the definition I like pop-rock. Because we want to be rock to the extent that it is about being revolutionaries in everyday life. But also we want to be pop, folk, to reach people. As for the flowering of a new indie scene, the issue is complex. Surely there is a natural generational change. And then the emergence of all these singers may also depend on the fact that take up a band, economically, it is increasingly difficult. Finally, I believe that the time is a bit 'harder for everyone than they were ten, twenty years ago. It is normal for a record that speaks more to intimacy seize the mark ".

no coincidence that you called to sing in your tooth Bungiorno Buonafortuna.

"Yeah. We met a couple of years ago in Salem, and we became fast friends. When we wrote the piece it seemed that the last part of this series between empathy and grotesque elements, was ideal for his poetry and his voice. When we called and took a train came. Let's try, he said, and it worked. "

last thing. Italy is full of young bands who sing in English. You have started well, but, understandably, the success you have achieved switching to Italian. How was the transition?

"It was a long process. When you're young it is normal to begin with English, for the stuff that plays all day. Then mature and understand what is necessary to communicate with people in front of you. The Italian groups that continue to make music in English after years and years without ever trying to get in the game going to play abroad, a little 'make me sad. They should have the desire to see if they are understood, accepted, rejected. But no. I admire a lot for me as Marco Fasolo, Jennifer Gentle, even if I do not love the music he does. It does so to bring a deck forward his plan, the songs are in English but must always be on tour in America, is now fully part of a certain scene. Having said that, who knows that sooner or later do not do it again, a record in English. But only if we promote it well outside Italy, only if we can go to disgraced around the world. "
