BWW Review: RADIO BEAT UN VIAGGIO NELLA STORIA DEL BEAT all' AUDITORIUM del SERAPHICUM
by ETTORE FARRATTINI - Apr 2, 2019


La musica beat degli anni '60 rivive in un allestimento'radiofonico' messo in scena all'Auditorium del Seraphicum con RADIO BEAT, un testo scritto da Claudia Borzi e Pietro Maria Tirabassi. Sullo stile della mitica Radio Luxembourg che negli anni '60 trasmetteva in anteprima i brani dei gruppi e cantanti piu in voga in quel periodo, ci ritroviamo nello studio radiofonico di una emittente chiamata proprio RADIO BEAT in cui una DJ (Claudia Borzi) in abiti e trucco rigorosamente anni '60 intrattiene il pubblico all'ascolto con interventi telefonici in diretta e con una band che si esibisce dal vivo. Lo scopo della serata non e solo quello di ascoltare delle ottime esecuzioni da parte dei The Riding Sixties di standard che fanno parte della storia della musica, ma anche di scoprire alcuni segreti dei brani o dei loro interpreti in un dialogo tra la DJ e il cantante del gruppo (Pietro Maria Tirabassi) in perfetto stile radiofonico.
