Called "...a brilliant outfit... who grab southern Italian traditional
music by the neck and recast it in a dramatic style" by (UK), Newpoli
is a unique group with a powerful sound and a 21st century take on
their tradition that is beyond comparison. With exciting
interpretations of traditional and originals that draw deeply from one
of the world's lesser-known music traditions, Newpoli is Italy's next
inspiring interpreter of southern Italy's taranta tradition. The group
stirs up a mesmerizing sound that melds traditional Italian folk
music, Greek and Turkish Grooves, Mediterranean and Spanish colors,
and a contemporary sensibility they call "Mediterranean Pulse - Ritmi
della Terra." In concert you'll hear the tamburello, played by
virtuoso Fabio Pirozzolo, pounding out the heartbeat of Newpoli's
music, singers Carmen Marsico and Angela Rossi will start up a wild,
frenetic dance, and you'll have a very hard time sitting still! The
tempo is high, and the drama and passion can be heard in every note!
