Like the mild wind of spring, Milan pleasantly invaded on a sunny Sunday at the end of March, so we will sweat the pleasant return 3 years after the last tour of Brunori Sas, that with his nostalgic freshness he delighted theUnipol Forum of Assago For a two -hour live to be singing.

There were 6 previous stages of the tour, which touched Vigevano, Florence, Rome, Naples, Bologna and that now they see the conclusion in the double Milanese date of 30 and 31 March.

Minimalism is rock

Little is missing at the stroke of 21.30 and Bruori climbs on stage without frills or twists: like one real rock starstrong lights and turned on in the building, smears the guitar, and his voice arrives to intone Boxing, with which the journey begins unexpectedly.

From the second piece, Tyson's bitehis musicians enter the scene, positioned in a smaller stage wood semicircle inside the largest internship, which embraces the singer -songwriter in the center, in a sort of walnut gheriglio, That a little winks at the title track of the tree of the walnuts.

23 songs and a band of 8 elements who draw a rearranged concert between lights and sounds for the occasion: here Stefano Amato on electric bass, cello and contralto mandola, Dario della Rossa on the piano, electrical plan, synthesizers, Simona Marrazzo with voice, soline, percussion, Mirko
Honor to the high sax, cross flies, bass clarinet, vibraphone, synth, choirs, Max Palermo on drums and percussion, Luigi Paese to the trumpet and soprano flicorno, Gianluca Bennardo al Trombone and flicorno baritone e Lucia fantretti to the violin, Viella, Voce, Theremin, all under the musical direction of Riccardo Sinigallia and the supervision of Sound Design by Taketo Gohara.

Much chatter, we are Bruorians

I broke the ice with the first pieces, Brunori opens to his audience and does it with the light -hearted irony which distinguishes him, speaking of himself as “the singer -songwriter” and doting the live of memorable jokes and anecdotes of his past.

The setlist mixes more dated pieces than its repertoire, such as The black man, Torero costume and the poignant How are youwritten on the occasion of the loss of the father, with pieces of the new album (The guillotine, life as it is, security guard and catastrophic afternoons) in a mix of memories which smell of wooden drawer in which the grandmother kept the well -ironed handkerchiefs. The story of the tragic and immanent meatloaf by Aunt Giulia, prepared every Sunday for lunch in the family and which punctually every Sunday Britori's father pretended to eat, and then roll it up on the paper napkin and launch him on the way home at home at the exit of Cosenza Sud every Sunday.

The audience of the forum, crowded by the standresses to the parterre and which recorded a Sold out For both evenings, dialogue openly with the artist and if there is no shortage of choirs from the stands with the “Go Dario” or the banners who portray him together with Vessicchio on a photomontage of the Riace Bronzes, there is also room for touching emotions, as on the notes of the Ballad For two who like us, On the visual of the family movies shot in Super8 of In order not to lose usand still on the serenade in Calabrian dialect of Fin ara Luna.

The consolidated and long -standing affection with his fans allows Brunori to joke: “It's all done for profit”, he admits, but also of Don't take yourself too seriously, granting a rock solo in the metal cover of Master of Puppets, together with more sought after improvisations such as the instrumental tail of Lamezia-Milan or even jumps in the 90s with the almost analogical atmospheres of one More water than fire in which he really seems to have been catapulted in the summer of '94 at the course bar and review Baggio's penalty.

Lightness will save the world

The last part of the live is poignant, reassuring and necessary: ​​on Kurt Cobain The lights of the mobile phones light up in one Constellation of digital stars that open the scenario towards the black sky of the Black moon. On the Black Ballad of Gunshot The tones are rekindled musically and then colored with the unexpected duet together with Emma Nolde (which opened the live at around 20.30) on the poetics Life lived.

AND' a crescendo of poetry and certainties of what are the milestones of Brucian music: the highly anticipated and sung Song against fear The set concludes, to leave room for an encore session completely “called” by Bruori himself who before going out asks the forum to be welcomed again on stage on the cry of “Inside inside”perfectly coordinated and rewarded action with the first verse of Guard '82 All sung by the public in Unisono.

At the end of August 31, the band for the grand finale of the concert with The truth and the Sanremese success de The walnut tree, dedicated to the Fiammetta daughter. With this delicate, intimate and sweet closed, confirmation of the authenticity of the Brunorian poetry, Loved by old fans and new-by probably arrived with the mainstream success of Sanremo.

The beauty of The walnut tree It will continue to spread on the summer tour, scheduled with a big party in Rome in the Arena del Circo Massimo on June 18, to continue far and wide of the peninsula from the end of June (28/6) in Codroipo (UD) until August (23/8) in Montesilvano (PE), for a large closing at the Arena di Verona on October 3.

Do not miss the possibility of singing certain “stupid songs” that can still help find themselves and “remember who you are”.
