Hymn to the Fallen, a celebration of all people died during the First World War

To celebrate the anniversary of the end of First World War and to satisfy my desire to play in a concert with wind band and choirs, I wanted to try to organize something of interesting and to involve also some musicians from Austrian. It was a symbolic collaboration: during the war Italians and Austrians killed each others, now they paly and sing together. I understand this project was really ambitious, if we think that economic resourses for amateurs associations are not very much, especially here in Italy.

Music during religious celebrations nowadays

I really feel upset about how religious music has been changed since some years ago.

Nowadays, something has been changed and to let young people to come close to the Church, religious celebrations have not  organ and Parrish choirs anymore but scout ore young guys makeshift choirs, with guitar and playing and singing silly pop songs, ok, with sacred text but in pop style. These songs are terrible, a musical disaster, and the performance are really bad too. I appreciate just the willingness of those guys, nothing else. It is good guys want to partecipate as they can, but I think they should decide to take some lessons of music and don't just sing as they can. Sacred music has got a long history and a great tradition, also in performances. A music well performed is great for our soul. I am not a professionist of music, of course, but I have studied many yea
