Emma e gli Aristodemo’s were the main musical attraction at the 3rd annual Fiera del Cassone this afternoon in Lucca.
For those who have never been to or heard of a Fiera del Cassone -- all the attractions are situated on the backs of Ape and other commercial vehicles all decked out for the occasion at the Serchio Motori company in Lucca.
Tug of war, one arm wrestling with Gervasio and a mechanical bucking bull all added to the fun and games as the large crowd enjoyed one of those perfect sunny October days that the autumn sometimes shares with us.

Emma e gli Aristodemo’s are: Emma Morton (cantante / singer), Keane (percussioni / percussion), Leo Gnesi (Contro Basso / Double Bass), Alessandro Rizzardi (Mandolino / Madolin and Sax), Fabio Guazzelli (chitarra / guitar) / Lucca Giovacchini (chitarra/guitar)
This Band came together in the winter of 2009 when local musicians Alessandro Rizzardi (mandolino), Keane (Percussioni), Fabio Guazzelli (chitarra), Leo Gnesi (contro bass), and Emma Morton (cantante) found each other in Aristo’s enoteca, with instruments in hand, and exciting ideas in mind and of course, passion in heart. A new type of swing group was born. Focusing mainly on forgotten swing Italiano from the 30′s, 40′s and 50′s, Emma e gli Aristodemos welcome you to jump back in time and into their salotto.
Each concert is a piece of live theatre: a typical 40′s lounge is recreated in each performance space and the audience can witness the musicians play as a family… you may even get an invite into their ‘little home’ for tea!
