Advance sale from 15 of October, further information here
 Conceived on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the "Afro e oltre… e altro festival", "Hommage- the sound that dances" wishes to represent the indissoluble bond in tradition between African music and dancing like the new urban trends (hip-hop, street dance, ragga, Krumping, dance all, raggaeton ) and to underline the possible dialogue between gestural expressiveness and apparently different kinds of music, in the name of a common root.
In HOMMAGE, the inspiration at the rituals of the NOUBA (Sudan) meets the dance and the black urban dances, building a rhythmic language filled with contemporary sounds which create an ideal bond between the village and the street, the ritual and the metropolis with a free creativity open to new horizons.
Bruno Genero, vibrant musician for dance collaborates with interpreters of international fame :
SEKOUBA BAMBINO DIABATE ( Guinea ), a talented and esteemed contemporary African griot-singer , a holder of vocal secrets and open to new trends
BALE DE RUA ( Minas Gerais- Brazil ), the male vigour of Afro- Brazialian street dance
KAIDARA DANCE COMPANY ( Italy), female interpreter in Afro Rhythm and Dance Style, the Latin mescla and
TONY ALVARADO’ s acrobatic raggaeton ( Cuba)
INDIOHANA ( Perů- Italy), the joining of man and woman in a two step
 The performance develops in 14 new pieces, true choreographic pictures enriched with improvisations and colours in overwhelming rhythms that bring the emotions and the energy of Africa with brush-strokes of urban taste.
The grooves of the music blend into the choreography to give origin to the SOUND THAT DANCES!
The music, based exclusively on percussion and voice, is composed and arranged by Master Bruno Genero.
