From the lights of Italian television to the gospel choirs of Harlem, passing through the cultural heart of New York . The Tenores di Neoneli's May continues unabated, starring in a tour that in recent weeks has taken them to international stages and iconic events for Sardinian music and tradition.
The historic group was a guest on the "GialappaShow" alongside Elio e i Neri per Caso, once again demonstrating their ability to engage with diverse languages and audiences without losing their identity. A few days earlier, on May 16th and 17th, the Tenores flew to the United States accompanied by Orlando Mascia and Matteo Muscas for two special dates in New York.
The first concert took place in the prestigious hall of the Italian Cultural Institute, while the following day the group animated a moving gospel mass at the Harlem Baptist Church, intertwining the tradition of tenor singing with one of the deepest musical souls of African-American culture.
An international journey that has spanned decades. "We've traveled extensively around the world, with New Zealand perhaps being the furthest point," says founder Tonino Cau. "Our dream destination? Western Australia." But behind the travels, above all, remains a sense of a very specific cultural responsibility: "What sets us apart is that we've always sung the rhythms of the past with our own words. It's an honor: we've performed our songs in over 40 countries on every continent. Our lyrics speak of current events, of people, and we've produced thirteen books." The Tenores di Neoneli tour will continue on Friday in Castiadas and on Sunday in Arbus.
