“Great pianist. The excellent performance of the pianist Alice Di Piazza.
With her naked feet she built an intimate and direct relationship with the piano.
Her touch on the keyboard was elegant and energetic. The sound was extremely clean and deep. It was a “gift” for those who could listen to her music, a magic artistic experience full of sensibility and musicality.
On Friday, December 21, the prison theatre in Messina (Gazzi) hosted Alice Di Piazza, an internationally renowned Sicilian pianist.
It was the second performance promoted by the Messina Filarmonica Laudamo and by the Associazione D’arteventi in Gazzi prison.
Surrounded by an intimate and appealing atmosphere, Alice Di Piazza played pieces from Brahms and Schuman. She has also benevolently accompanied the poetry reading from a group of inmates.
“I am very grateful to you all, said Alice Di Piazza after the concert, for such a rich experience. Society should intensely be filled by art, so that it could touch everybody’s heart. Not only small social groups of people would benefit from music».

This highly talented pianist succeeded in catching the very deep soul of the music she played. Her concert was intense and powerful in which also “silence” was charged with a profound meaning”.
