"ANIME DI RESINA" - Video tribute to the woods of the Asiago Plateau by hang player Umberto Gallani

After the devastation of October 29, 2018, the musician Umberto Gallani plays in tribute to the highland woods

"The Asiago plateau at the end of October last year was hit by a tornado at 170 km / h.

On the ground trees broken and bent by the wind like toothpicks; what remains is a sad scenario wrapped in the pungent smell of resin. Everything remains indelible in the soul of the people especially for those who loved those woods, for those who really lived them.

In the days following the devastation I found myself there and what I heard in that instant I translated into music.

I reflect, I listen and I don't forget."

This is the story of the hang player and sound explorer Umberto Gallani, who in this evocative video gives voice, through his music, to the highland woods devastated by the tornado of October 29, 2018. 

The metallic but at the same time warm and deep sound of his hang (idiophone musical instrument composed of two flattened hemispheres in hardened steel) creates a suggestive, almost mystical atmosphere, which invites us to reflect, while the images of the broken and fallen trees follow one another, telling the devastation, not only physical but also spiritual, that the tornado has left behind.
