Eugenio Bennato - Che il Mediterraneo sia (2002) is a beautiful song about the tight link between people living on Mediterranean shores...
"I ritmi musicali dell'Italia del Sud, come la taranta, hanno tanto in comune con la musica del Nord-Africa e degli altri Paesi che si affacciano sul bacino del Mediterraneo..." (Bennato)
I made this video with pictures I took in Alexandria (Egypt), with its mosques and its Qait Bey Castle on Corniche Al Bahr... And Marco Zurzolo (I adore your music!) is in this video too, because he was inspired by Egyptian music and rhythms.
In these difficult times for immigrants (and for us) in our country, this song sends a message of tolerance and peace.
