Maestro di Cappella del duomo a Gaeta tra 1619 e 1637, Giovanni Battista de Bellis (Itri, 1570 ca. Gaeta 1637) e sicuramente tra i migliori madrigalisti del primo ventennio del Seicento. Il contributo che de Bellis da alla produzione musicale napoletana del primo Seicento, va colto e compreso analizzando non solo gli ambiti musicali da lui indagati, quanto anche il quadro istituzionale di riferimento e il ruolo sociale che ha ricoperto.

After being forced into bankruptcy, what began as a recording of what was happening became his debut memoir, The Only Way Through is Forward: How an American Survived Bankruptcy in Amsterdam During Covid-19. A truly unique autobiographical novel that combines history, wry self-reflection, business acumen, hope during a modern pandemic, and Luksetichs satirical voice.

Engaging with a Dave Harris play isnt easy: It can be simultaneously pleasurable, painful, hilarious, and terrifying.DC Theater Arts

Questa e una storia diversa, raccontata attraverso gli occhi di un bambino che nel 76 non ha ancora compiuto dieci anni e vive i giorni del terremoto in bilico tra lorrore e la favola, la paura e lavventura. Siamo tra San Daniele e Gemona, tra operai jugoslavi e militari canadesi, fantasmi notturni che svolazzano tra le macerie, figure indimenticabili che forse non sono mai esistite, se non nella fervida immaginazione di un bambino Un bambino che sapeva trasformare perfino una tenda militare in un accampamento indiano e il profilo di una montagna nella faccia di quellOrco che talvolta si risveglia, goloso come di case, paesi e carne umana. E cosi la tragedia del terremoto in Friuli si trasforma in unopportunita di crescita, mentre sullo sfondo muore, sepolta sotto le macerie, la civilta contadina.
