Medi Orchestra

Mediterranean Music

Project born from the union of 6 Tuscan musicians with the common intent of taking a musical journey through the civilizations of the Mediterranean, a tribute to what has been the epicenter of epochal transformations, of a sea that has seen the birth of religions and cultures, of a basin that is a meeting place between Europe and Africa, a starting point for voyages, for the departures of peoples towards new destinies. Unraveling a long thread made of rhythms and colors, songs in the original language intertwine: from Balkan tradition to the sounds of the Greek coasts, crossing melodies from southern Italy and Arab countries, then returning to the city from which Medì Orkestar departed, its city, Livorno.
