What I learned from the birth of Moreno, and confirmed with the arrivals of Zeca and Tom, has no name and no price. I really believe that ours is not a family of musicians whatsoever: there is a genetic character dedicated to music “.

The suggestion of the ancient theater of Taormina will join the emotion of having on the stage a legend of world music, one of the most important songwriters of the century, on a par with artists like Bob Dylan, Bob Marley and the couple Lennon / McCartney. As Veloso himself says, it will be a show born of his desire to be happy “.
