LelioSwing. 50 years of Italian history
Swinging at the Markets of Trajan in Rome. I liked everything of black music: rhythm, harmony, but I especially liked the swing, which I took inspiration from and still I do when I have to do something" (Lelio Luttazzi)
The exhibition "LelioSwing. 50 years of Italian history" - promoted by Roma Capitale, Department of Culture, Creativity and Artistic Promotion, Sovrintendenza Capitolina and the Fondazione Lelio Luttazzi - is a tribute to this unforgettable Maestro. An exhibition that tells the most important moments and the atmosphere of an era in Italy, from the postwar period through the sixties to the present time: personal objects, from the wooden radio to the television, space design, documents that mark the transition from "giazzo" to jazz. And photos of the post-war and the Dolce Vita periods, images and emotions that tell how a boy from Trieste, a "young fool", has managed to make his dream come true. A chronological path divided into 8 Halls and 7 Sections.
