18.00: Bus leaving for the visit to the organic farm Moretto in Castelvetro. The farm produces organic Lambrusco wine and belongs to the pilot farms network of the ORWINE project. It will be possible to visit the cellar, to discuss with the wine-maker and to have an overview of the experimental protocols applied and to conclude with a wine testing of several wines obtained by the ORWINE wine-making protocols.
Once the visit is finished, the bus will take the participants back either to their hotel or to Vignola where a concert, see below, will be held in the fortress.
Music in the Fortress
Monday, June 16th, 21.30 pm
Where: Castle trenches (in case of rain: Cantelli Theater)
This free concert, entitled “Sicily. From Middle East to Trinacria”, ends the 20th edition of this successful exhibition, which will be entitled "Twanging Islands - Mediterranean Splinters". Every year, the event renews itself by exploring sounds of different parts of the world. Music from Sicily, Sardinia and other Mediterranean islands will have the leading role in this year’s edition.
Specifically, on June 16th, the band DOUNIA will give a tribute concert to Sicily. DOUNIA blends the unique Middle Eastern vocality of Faisal Taher with original mixes of melodies, harmonies and rhythms from every corner of the Mediterranean.
