“ I beg pardon to old tale,
if I don't like the stingy ant.
I'm on cicada's side,
wich the most beautiful song doesn't sell,
but give as a gift....
"

Gianni Rodari

 

   

 

There are many reasons of joy in presenting the first edition of Piccolo Festival Friuli Venezia Giulia:

First: invitation and the support of Municipality of Reana del Rojale, in thinking and organziing an event like this.

Second: participation of people, with his warm presence, at preview events, already organized in collaboration with municipality of Tricesimo.

Third: enthusiasm and help of many colleagues and friends (first of all Roberto Miani and Marco Maria Tosolini) e supporters, who believed in this project. People, therefore, could not be focus of the programme and soul of this Festival.
For that reason it was thought up a three-year course to do a sort of ideal trip in the three age of life (childhood, youth and maturity) offering every year a pertaining theme.

Starting from childhood nothing seemed to be better than fairytales to speak to children (of all ages) and let them discover inestimable value of fantasy and creativity. An investement on futur of culture and art: train a new audience and new artists for music. So workshops and projects for young musicians are integral and main part of the event. Omen is that the seed we're planting today could soon give a return for territory and especially for his people.
