2019 Programme
Event #4
Bandakadabra
Sketches
Paintings, figures, sketches. A succession of musical pictures, small, unique acts connected by mental associations, quotes, Chinese boxes or simply by a B-flat chord. Bandakadabra undertake a musical-thetrical-comic show with a vaguely dadaist and surreal tone that will captivate the audience. Music is the common thread of the show because it is able to connect incompatible aspects – a tribute to Western culture and to the Italian musician Ennio Morricone turns into a Beatles’ song, but it also may become the chance to think about the toxicity of smartphones and the unlucky love life of unsuccessful musicians.

Bandakadabra, with seven woodwinds and two percussions, is a proper street-orchestra that combines the energy of the street bands to the sound of the big Thirties bands. Born in Torino, Bandakadabra boasts a frenetic live activity that led to perform both in Italy and in Europe, and to gain a growing attention from fans thank to a powerful combination of music and cabaret able to seduce any kind of public. From Edinburgh Jazz&Blues Festival to Paléo Festival, passing through Jazz sous le pommiers, I suoni delle Dolomiti and the Tenco Prize, Bandakadabra established itself as a unique artistic reality in four years only.
