Joe Soprani, A Musical Celebration of Italian Cinema - USA

Joe Sopraniconcert posterThe Rotwitt Theatre at McShain Performing Arts Center; Rosemont College, PA, November 5th, 2017, 3:00pm to 5:00pm.

The Carlo Aonzo Trio, featuring Italian mandolin virtuoso Carlo Aonzo, joins with the Ciao Philadelphia Mandolin Orchestra to present a concert performance of music from classic Italian films.

Professional accordionist Joe Soprani writes: "Although I will not be a featured soloist I will be part of the ensemble.  I did have the pleasure of arranging most of the selections for accordion.  Two of my favorites on the program are Theme from 8 1/2 by Rota and Love Theme from Cinema Paradiso by Morricone."

During the first half of the program, the Ciao Philadelphia Mandolin Orchestra - including more than 60 musicians from the Mid-Atlantic and New England - will present a program highlighting the film scores of Nino Rota and Ennio Morricone.

Several works will feature Carlo Aonzo as guest soloist and feature Joe Soprani on accordion. The second half of the program will feature Carlo Aonzo (mandolin), Lorenzo Piccone (guitars and vocals), and Luciano Puppo (double bass) in a trio setting. Their program will include selections from their acclaimed CD "A Mandolin Journey."
