L'Histoire du Soldat, is the new creation of the Figli d'Arte Cuticchio Association.
A "fable" that compares the Devil's evil deeds with the candor of a naive Soldier who only wishes to spend his fifteen days of leave with his mother and fiancée, in his native village; the young man brings with him an old violin, which he plays with passion and feeling.
As the plot of a tale dense with poetry unfolds, the vibrations of Cuticchio's voice and the variations of his expressiveness intertwine with the cadences of the "cuntu."
All this is interwoven with the charm of the music performed by the Parco della Musica Contemporanea Ensemble (PMCE), which amplifies the magic of a truly effective performance.
