review

…. On June 23 in Ravenna I attended a musical show in which the participatory mode worked perfectly, creating an interactive dramaturgical space of extraordinary lyrical and civil power: Inferno del Teatro delle Albe, taken from Dante’s poem, whose soundscape fascinating was developed by Luigi Ceccarelli. Marco Martinelli and Ermanna Montanari, the souls of the show, have reached here one of the peaks of their theatrical (and musical) journey.
The staging should also be mentioned: its wonders are due to the set designer Edoardo Sanchi who has been working in the field of opera for decades.
I have already spoken in one of my previous speeches of the

vocality of Ermanna Montanari (a real Callas of acting). If we take one of his most virtuosic and exciting “declaimed arias”, the monologue of the greedy and prodigal (canto VII), culminating in the verse-refrain “for human people to get rich”, we find ourselves in not only rap (as many have said): ecclesiastical cantillation, ancient paracatalogé, recitative, rhythmic melologue, modern Sprechgesang – in the Voice of Ermanna live many different voices and “different voices make sweet sounds”.
