De Andrè Squares (Piazzette De Andrè)

Saturday 27 September in the historic centre

Back by popular demand, an event that Fabrizio would certainly have loved, bringing his music to the alleyways of the old city, is back. An emotional and evocative journey from one square to another, seeking and rediscovering sounds that are always the same yet always different, discovering unfamiliar corners and rediscovering others perhaps forgotten. A journey through history, art, songs, and solidarity, in the historic center of Albenga, De André's hometown. In friendship and sharing.
