From Raffaele Calace to Domenico Modugno, passing through the Italian regions and the best Belpaese song tradition, ‘Mandolitaly’ breaks apart and casts a new light on the Italian music heritage: from the internationally known ‘Arrivederci Roma’ and ‘Roma nun fa’ la stupida stasera’ to the great historical fathers of mandolin as Carlo Munier for a taste of the classical repertoire.
