The Rain Band at the Soul Italian Community
The Soul Italian Community were in residence at the Barga Jazz Club this evening. Gradually this loose grouping of soul music enthusiasts dotted around the region is tightening up into a very forceful movement with a large on line community across Italy and many turning up for the occasional live outings at the Jazz Club. This evening there were three bands on stage. First off were the GlittrZ - unfortunately O'Connor the barganews award winning photographer arrived at the club just too late to catch sight of the GlittrZ but talking to Geoff from the Jacks Pack band it would seem that they had made a good impression on the club members. He promises to be there the next time the GlittrZ hit the stage.
Second up were SIC Resident Band front by Tiziana Noccioli (article here) with Daniele Palla, Riccardo Lorenzetti, Mirko Federighi, Massimo Rapezzi and of course all powered along by Andrea Giannelli on drums. Tiziana just gets better and better at each outing. They were quickly followed on stage by the main act of the night- The Rain Band from Firenze.
A great vocal line up on the front row with the powerful soul voice of Claudia D' Agnone backed up by Chiara Santini, Alessandro Gerini and Elisa Santini. The back line was Gianni Castiglione on drums, Salvo Punzo on keyboards, some sharp guitar work from Antonio Guidara and hidden behind the girls was none other than the bass player from Jack's Pack - Ginotonico enjoying himself with some free running bass lines

- W. Shakespeare : Lear? Not at all! Those words are lifted from Macbeth's soliloquy:"....L ife's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing."
- Quentin Compson : Yes, Ma'am. It would be King Lear I believe, an allusion to the fool (and to Lear himself). But there is a more recent connection between Yokapatawpha and the Coldfields with a Biblical reference -- Absalom -- rather than the Shakespearean one to which you allude.
- poetry : Miss Coldfield, considered poetess laureate of Yoknapatawpha County, may simply be quoting Shakespeare, I do believe.
- Quentin Compson : Rosa: Stay in your own novel, please. You have no business in The Sound and the Fury, although I appear in both.
- Quentin Compson : Doggy, May I refer you to three sources on the Action-Theory dialectic? Albert Camus: "To do is to be." Jean-Paul Sartre: "To be is to do." Francis Albert Sinatra; "Do be do be doo." That should answer your question.
- Rosa Coldfield : ... it is a tale Told by and idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.
- doggybag : Quentin - your constant focus on ideas over deeds makes you a highly unreliable commentator- quite often it is difficult to tell which of the actions you are suggesting are mere figments of your imagination and which you really do think should be acted upon.
- Quentin Compson : Hey, you two ought to get together sometime.
- Rosa Coldfield : Why of course : )
- Thomas Sutpen : Miss Rosa knows very well who will merely endure, and who will ultimately prevail
- Rosa Coldfield : It is not entirely clear, however, who has been sorest lately or with whom ; )

- w le piante : la gente non si fida piu' perche' troppi alberi sono stati abbattuti inutilmente, significa che non c'e' rispetto per le piante e quindi per la natura. come mai questi alberi sono sopravvissuti tutti questi anni e improvvisamente si ammalano e diventano pericolosi? forse dovremmo rivedere il modo in cui le piante vengono potate e fare piu' prevenzione?!?
Grazie doggybag per l’ottimo articolo.
