The Italian Cultural Institute in Cairo, in collaboration with the Accademia Musicale Chigiana of Siena and CIDIM – the Italian National Music Committee, is pleased to present FisHarmonica, the meeting of two instruments: the Harmonica and the Accordion.
A meeting of “free reeds”, considering that both instruments have, with the difference, that the air is pushed by the bellows in the Accordion, by the breath in the Harmonica. This blend expresses the extraordinary musical harmony of its performers: Gianluca Littera (harmonica) and Massimiliano Pitocco (accordion).
Thanks to their versatility and artistic connection, the duo presents an innovative repertoire: a journey that spans from Baroque music to French Impressionism and continues with contemporary compositions enriched by ethnic influences.
Date: Tuesday, 21st January
Time: 7 PM
Venue: Arab Music Institute, 22 Ramses, Oraby, Al Azbakeya, Cairo
