dov’è più profondo (where it is deeper) is a show made of corporeity, sound and images, the result of a creative process in which practitioners of traditional singing and orality forms from the host territories were invited to share their musical and cultural heritage. Their voices were recorded, thus implementing the repertoire of spontaneous choirs and singers found in rare archives and collections in Puglia, Piemonte and the Val d’Aosta.
dov’è più profondo, overlapping narratives coexist, songs stripped of a unique provenance and thoughts on identities and traditions freed from the ideal of purity, to leave room for the imperfection of mixing. There are traces of people present and past, inhabitants of places distant from each other, united by the time of effort and work, of sociality and of the relationship with nature and history. We belong to a society that almost no longer contemplates space-time dedicated to rituality, except in forms often conditioned by largely flattened imaginaries. The choreographic creation then brings together the power of singing, as a place for possible sensitive sharing between human beings, to analyze and celebrate simple and important aspects of living together.
