About this Event
The Italian Center is happy to host Warekes for a special evening of music and storytelling.
Warekes, a band of Latin American origin, shares a deep connection with Italy. This piece was born in Sicily during their artistic residency for the theatrical production Il Viaggio di Giufà (produced by Associazione Gravina Arte). This song brings together traditional sounds such as the Venezuelan cuatro and the Sicilian jaw harp (marranzano), alongside clarinet and four-part vocal harmonies.
With lyrics by Italian author Serena Sapienza, the song reflects on the transformation of the Mediterranean Sea through the centuries—from a cradle of cultures and exchange to a border and tragic sea of memory today.
Warekes will perform the piece live on the very day of its release, creating a unique moment that celebrates the cultural connection between South America and Southern Italy.
