Also this year, in fact, the association “La Ginestra” (chaired by Pino Urso), which organizes the exhibition now in the 16th edition has set up a billboard that combines culture and music in a kaleidoscope of initiatives related to the territory and beyond. “Reception, multiculturality and cultural resistance through the universal language of music and art”. It is the message that the Association has been released since 1996 year of the first edition of the Festival. The streets and squares of the small hilly village presene of verzino are the location to the review. The 2025 edition marks the return of Eugenio Bennato who performed on the stage of the Festival in 1998 (at the beginning of the “Taranta Power” movement). The “Synesthesia at the Festival: between photography and music” moves in the sign of inclusion, coordinated by Enzo Tristoino, which involves guests of the therapeutic community “Solidale verzino”.
