Zubin, Roberto and Pino at Piazza Plebiscito
If you happened to visit the brand new, cleaner Naples this July, angels were by your side! I am referring to the magnificent and exceptional three-night majestic and illuminated Piazza Plebiscito held under the stars. In front of a Neapolitan audience of thousands, conductor Zubin Metha, ballet star Roberto Bolle and the king of taramblu, Pino Daniele, revived Naples as the former capital of music and international arts.
When Krishna Stopped in Capri
The Bansuri is a transverse alto flute of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal, made of a single length of bamboo with six or seven open finger holes. An ancient musical instrument associated with cowherds and the pastoral tradition, intimately linked to the love story of Krishna and Radha.

The Police Concert at NY MSG, on Halloween Night $ting

NY Philharmonic at Central Park
New York cultural landscape, people and weather are in an explosive and variant mood as well. What’s happening in the biosphere? Astrologers say Mercury is retrograde, and a cloudy cosmic energy surrounds our planet…where the Ego is the center of our human consciousness… whatever.
“Te Amo Corazón”
One of the things I love doing as soon as I come to NY is to watch VH1, especially at Christmas time. Sounds very commercial but, believe me, it gives a flair of what people desire or dream of in the air during this cold winter season. And I am one of them. And there he is!
