I racconti di Mamma Orca ideally represents the link between the archaic, popular and refined past of Naples and its musical tradition, and contemporary music. Roberto De Simone’s extremely sophisticated musical creation combines the string quartet, the pinnacle of chamber music, and the guitar, a double-faced instrument used for both classical and popular music and tells the story of a fairytale Naples (Mamma Orca) and De Machau’s Flemish school. The Suite Gesualdiana by Edoardo Catemario, who has adopted and who shares De Simone’s compositional mission linked to Naples and its traditions, completes the programme
