All the instrument courses of the SCUOLA DI MUSICA POPOLARE of Forlimpopoli (Italy) merge into this gorgeous ensemble founded and directed by DAVIDE CASTIGLIA. The site of the School is available typing

and a complete resumé of the links pointing to musical events related to the school is available typing http://fontanone.interfree.it/bandadegaitas.html
Every year on first weekend of june the School organizes a big "fiesta"where the teachers do play with their pupils for the fun of the folk music lovers of this part of the country, called EMILIA-ROMAGNA. I do not mention here the list of soloists or players, it would become too long; i will just mention the names of the president of the association, Marco Bartolini, and my old friend, teaching there drone instruments like zampogna, gaitas or other bagpipes in general, his name is Marco Tadolini; have fun listening; yours J.Carlos Battilani, musician, cameraman and regisseur of ARBATAX videoproductions.
