As often happens, the district of San Martino di Trento hosts and proposes many folklore events throughout the year, so during the day of 10 July 2023 there will be an "Urban Living Room". With the Urban Living Room and thanks to the musical selections curated and commented by Giuliano Lott, we will transform corners of the city of Trento into living rooms where there will be the opportunity to listen to good music. Music and chatter to tell the latest music culture in just over an hour.
Joni Mitchell does not need introductions: she is universally considered one of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time, but there are those who do not hesitate to call her the best. She left Canada with her guitar, a friend of her compatriots Neil Young and Leonard Cohen well before their fame, and landed in New York where she soon became a folk star. He joins David Crosby and Graham Nash and rattles off a series of records that go down in history, such as the famous Blue. In the mid-70s, she revolutionized her style by including jazz musicians in the band that accompanied her (Tom Scott, John Guerin, Jaco Pastorius, Pat Metheny, Lyle Mays, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock) and earned the esteem of the gruff Charlie Mingus, who entrusted her with some of his compositions but unfortunately died before hearing them performed, at least in part, on the record that bears the name of the great double bassist from Nogales. In the 80s he returned to rock and at the beginning of the new millennium he still amazed with the greatest orchestral hits Travelogue. A well-rounded artist, today she survives the aneurysm that struck her in 2015. In November he will be 80 years old.
