Composers and Bandleaders Anna Bignami and Laura Veltri present their new project: “Epitaphs from the Hill”, performed by the Bignami Veltri Jazz Ensemble<\/em>. Veltri is a present student and Bignami is almuni from the jazz\/pop composition programme at the Academy.<\/p>\n

\u201cEpitaphs from the Hill\u201d is an encounter between music and the poetry of Edgar Lee Masters. The collection of poems titled \u201cSpoon River Anthology\u201d(1914) tells the stories of the inhabitants of an imaginary town, Spoon River. These stories are told by the inhabitants themselves in the form of epitaphs, where they finally reveal the darkest parts of their lives; their tales of corruption, bitterness, violence, unreciprocated love, and longing for lost youth, destroy the idyllic image of the American village of the time leaving space to a more crude, realistic depiction. Once dead, the characters tell the hard truth, free from the fake smiles of socially accepted behaviour.<\/p>\n

This is arguably a highly relevant issue of today\u2019s society: often, we find ourselves swallowing our negative emotions, for the sake of pleasing our peers, being accepted or because we convince ourselves that, by not addressing our issues, eventually we will make them disappear. Positivity is misused as a tool to hide inner problems, thus merely burying the issues rather than confronting them, according to Anna Bignami and Laura Veltri.<\/p>\n

\u201cEpitaphs from the Hill\u201d invites the listeners to quit avoiding their hidden skeletons and to finally work through them, before it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n
