FLO »Canzoni di sale«

Sun, Nov 24, 2024, 19:30
Elbphilharmonie, Kleiner Saal (Hamburg)
FLO (Vocals), Federico Luongo (Guitar), Francesco Di Cristofaro (Bouzouki), Francesco Di Cristofaro (Accordion), Francesco Di Cristofaro (Flute)
All the things this woman can do! Floriana Cangiano, FLO for short, is a songwriter, singer, author and actress. As one of the most versatile artists in Italy, this Neapolitan lady is showcasing a packed programme as a trio with »Canzone di sale«. After singing studies and theatre productions, FLO gave the world her first album in 2014 and revealed a musical cosmos in which she exuberantly linked canzone and chanson, pop and Latin, jazz and folk. Her sonic and poetic influences range, besides the world of southern Italy, from Billie Holiday via Cesaria Evora to Frida Kahlo and Pablo Neruda. FLO is a specialist in little everyday stories, which she tells with passion and enigmatic flavour – and always from a strong female perspective. In the trio with the guitarist Federico Luongo and the multi-instrumentalist Francesco Di Cristofaro (bouzouki, accordion, flutes), she tells of love, courage and fate sometimes wistfully, sometimes wryly, then again dramatically. Her two companions create an onomatopoeic setting which carries you off into Mediterranean skies and scents.

The Concertgebouw is right at the heart of Dutch music. That is why we love to welcome the best amateur orchestras and choirs of the Netherlands. To an amateur musician a performance at the Concertgebouw is always special, often marking the end of an extensive period of rehearsals. Please note: although these concerts are of a high standard, they are not performed by professional ensembles.
