\nWhere<\/strong>: Auditorium Santa Margherita, Piacenza
\nFred Frith is a central figure in international contemporary and experimental music, often described by critics as the \u201cbest living guitarist\u201d for his ability to reinvent the instrument. Composer, teacher and founder of historic groups such as Henry Cow and Art Bears, he has collaborated with artists such as Robert Wyatt, Mike Oldfield and The Residents. In the concert in Piacenza, the guitar takes centre stage in a journey of sound that encompasses improvisation, timbral exploration and unexpected musical visions. An unmissable event, with possible surprise guests.<\/p>\nSilvia Cignoli in concert<\/h3>\n

\nWhere<\/strong>: Auditorium Santa Margherita, Piacenza
\nA unique date in Italy for the return of The Necks, the legendary Australian cult trio. Their music, difficult to define as avant-garde, jazz, minimalism or ambient, is considered unique in the contemporary scene and followed with great attention by international critics. Their recent album Disquiet, voted best album of 2025 by numerous specialist publications and celebrated by magazines such as The Wire, confirms the exceptional nature of their career. Chris Abrahams (piano and keyboards), Lloyd Swanton (double bass and bass) and Tony Buck (drums and percussion) create an intense and unpredictable sound experience, based on refined improvisation that makes the trio one of the most original on the global experimental scene.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":58452,"template":"","territorio":[939],"categorie_eventi":[1011],"class_list":["post-46079","events","type-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","territorio-piacenza-en","categorie_eventi-music"],"acf":{"altrama-events-contacts":"[{\"id\":null,\"order\":1,\"label\":\"website\",\"type\":\"website\",\"value\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.associazionenovecento.com\\\/musichenuoveapiacenza\",\"lang\":\"it\"}]","blocco_aggiornamento":false,"invia_ad_ert":[],"visit_emilia":[],"altrama-events-dates":"{\"dates\":[\"2026-01-10\",\"2026-02-07\",\"2026-02-27\",\"2026-03-28\",\"2026-04-10\",\"2026-05-02\"],\"start\":\"2026-01-10\",\"end\":\"2026-05-02\",\"week\":[0,0,0,0,1,1,0],\"customDates\":true}","altrama-events-locations":"[{\"id\":null,\"order\":1,\"locality\":null,\"location\":{\"city_id\":32,\"city\":\"Piacenza\",\"province\":\"Piacenza\",\"address\":\"Via Sant'Eufemia\",\"number\":\"12\",\"lat\":45.05461439215857,\"lng\":9.689299781638},\"title\":\"Auditorium Santa Margherita\"}]","altrama-events-ticketing":"{\"ingresso\":\"2\",\"info\":{\"it\":{\"tariffa_intera\":\"\",\"tariffa_gratuita\":\"\",\"tariffa_ridotta\":\"\",\"abbonamenti\":\"\",\"sito\":\"\"},\"en\":{\"tariffa_intera\":\"\",\"tariffa_gratuita\":\"\",\"tariffa_ridotta\":\"\",\"abbonamenti\":\"\",\"sito\":\"\"}}}","altrama-events-times":"{\"type\":\"program\",\"morning\":{\"start\":\"\",\"end\":\"\"},\"afternoon\":{\"start\":\"\",\"end\":\"\"},\"evening\":{\"start\":\"\",\"end\":\"\"},\"freetext\":{\"it\":\"\",\"en\":\"\"}}"},"yoast_head":"\n
