 Gianni Donnini, of the group La Damigiana will be the teacher of the Saltarello workshop. Saltarello was previously many centuries before, an Italian dance improvisation practiced outdoors and in local work during breaks or at the end of farm work (harvesting, reaping, harvesting), in each season and at any time. Gianni Donnini, organettista / researcher born in Osimo and resident in Fabriano (AN), plays this music since he was twelve years of age. He had the good fortune of being able to learn the Saltarello Marches directly from older players in the local area between Osimo Jesi and Filottrano (province of Ancona) and, in turn, now, is trying to convey this important traditional cultural heritage to others. His passion for the Saltarello Marches would help to start research work in this field, going to find older players, with the aim to publish a detailed document about this particular dance. Currently Gianni holds regular courses in the provinces of Ancona and Macerata. For further information, email gianni.it@libero.it |
