Capital Jam: the report of the first evening of Thursday 6 March
The atmosphere around Capital Jam It is immediately perceptible, even simply by observing the stage: there are musical instruments of all kinds, everywhere. It is a beautiful sign that everything will be strictly played live and the first thing I think is precisely this: what a beautiful music played. At the end of the event, this phrase takes off in my head because in recent times this thing has become a rarity and is a shame.
To welcome the public, enthusiastic and very warm, were Luca de January And Mixus who, right from the start, made it clear what direction he would take the evening, between jamming improvised with the band directed by Vittorio Cosma And chat with all the guests.
On the notes of Back in the USSRthe Negrita who sing and play on this historical piece. Pauthe band's frontman, is on the game without problems, indeed, it proves to be very helpful in any type of musical improvisation also in the company of Drigoguitarist.

Engaging talks alternate where anecdotes and curiosities appear to be lighter and deeper, especially when i Negrita They reveal that during the Covid period they had thought of “hanging guitars on the nail” and stopping making music. After five years of work, however, their eleventh studio album is about to arrive Song for ruthless yearsout on Friday 28 March.
It is the turn of Giuseppe Battistonthat in the wake of Negrita It opens an interesting and fun chat and which perfectly entertains the public, in a completely sold out room. The main focus this time focuses on the music of Bruce Spesteenwhich ends with an iconic phrase called by Luca De Gennaro: “The world is divided between those who appreciate Bruce Spesteen and those who have never seen it live”. I am part of the second group, but I give him perfectly right.
Before leaving the stage, the actor and records delight in a cover of The amaranth Mickey Mouse Of Paolo Contealways accompanied by the magical band directed by Vittorio Cosma. It is the turn of Francesca Michielininterviewed in a playful and light way from Mixus. She also enters the notes of the iconic Baba O'Riley of the The Whothen move on to a masterpiece of Ornella Vanoni with Toquinhothat is to say Fearless. He concludes by performing on his song Sanremo Mud in paradise.
The final part was the icing on the cake of a truly magical evening, where all the protagonists of the evening, come on Negrita And Francesca Michielin to Luca de January And Mixusthey performed singing Heroes Of David Bowie.
The promises of giving the public a light evening between music played and chatter were kept and if the public immediately replied – all three evenings are sold out – after this first date it will really be a fight against the last ticket in order to attend a more unique event than rare in this historical period. Capital Jampromoted with flying colors.
