Pippo Pollina

• Pop

Sicilian singer-songwriter Pippo Pollina is bringing a very special project to the stage in 2025. Together with the symphony orchestra of the Musikschule Konservatorium Zürich (MKZ), he will perform his musical repertoire from over 40 years in a very special setting. This project will fuse different styles of the 20th century: the ethnic influences of Béla Bartók, the Latin American colourings of Astor Piazzolla and the epic narrative art of the Italian composer Ennio Morricone. Under the direction of the Swiss-French maestro David Bruchez and with orchestral arrangements by Massimiliano Matesic and Juan Esteban Cuacci, the Swiss Youth Orchestra becomes a perfect symbiosis to reinterpret Pollina’s varied songs in part and reproduce them in the best possible way.
