“Ecotopia: The novel of our future” is a utopian novel written by Ernest Callenbach, published in 1975. The company described into the book is one of the first utopian and ecological company, and had influenced the counterculture and the environmental movement during the 1970s . This reading inspired the title and the implementation of the program of this edition. The Association sustains the idea that the culture could develop wealth and must not bartable for a strong development of things, also the Association sustains the idea that the feelings that must guide every action of “good government” should not be misled by canons that are reaching the critical point of no return. An idea of Culture, through the instrument of Music, which makes possible a utopia along with its eco-sustainable impact.
And, in a word, here comes the meaning of all this: ECOTOPIA.
As always, the Cultural Association Nel Gioco del Jazz, which is reaching its tenth scheduled season, it keeps faith in the initial assumptions by consolidating and enhancing, through greater and more efficient use of media, the relationship with a community that has grown up and has recognized the Association as a driving force in its territorial activities. With its sceduled events, in addition to out-of-date appointments, editorial readings, meetings with authors and protagonists of musical life, involvement of schools, the Association Nel Gioco del Jazz will create a network of interests and a live debate that holds he became interested in the creation of Culture beyond the time of stage-setting and its limited period.
The artistic program will be articulated to make both the knowledge of the genre repertoire as well as the prophetic evolution, involving various musical languages which will find in their intimate fusion an occasion of stimulation and comparison.
For this reason, the Association moves beyond the narrow range of traditions, especially Jazz, to meet the cultured European cultures, the ferment of border music such as rock, hip hop and new electronics , as well as the never sufficiently explored ethnic music and avant-garde.
