I would like to thank you. Vorrei ringraziarvi. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about TEMPO Fest, our groundbreaking, exciting, evocative festival of Italian music and creativity happening now. The Now Sound of Italy.
TEMPO Fest is momentous. For Italy, for Canada, for Music – and for me personally as an Italian-Canadian musician and producer. TEMPO Fest represents the next creative frontier of my cross-continent successes, Espresso Manifesto, the series of international recordings and performances, and Salone di Cultura, the multidisciplinary diasporic cultural series. I have built on these, added years of planning, dreaming, connecting and more planning – and eccoci TEMPO Fest.
Recently TEMPO Fest created TEMPO Connect, and partnered with Global Toronto, Italia Music Export and Puglia Sounds to bring together 25 leading members of the Italian music sector with Canadian and international delegates in an online forum, showcasing the three brilliant artists of Italy’s Fanfara Station. The result: new relationships to help open up the promising Canadian market for Italian music companies and vice versa and offer performance opportunities for artists.
And with TEMPO Connect, my TEMPO Fest team and I – are just at the beginning.
TEMPO Fest promises to become a cultural event of international significance. It will be a hub for Italian, Canadian and International artists and music sectors. A space to ignite creativity, foster collaborations, elevate our human experience. TEMPO Fest will be the platform for a next generation of creators and thought leaders. It will promote the cultural harmony that we all – people, nations and the world – need now.
