    AcquAria, the Sound of the Sicilian Sea

    Iwona Adamczyk(November 07, 2011)
    Drawing inspiration from Sicily, its culture, people, history and music, AcquAria is a goup that carries the audience to faraway sandy beaches, “it is the force of desire and the force of the accompanying emotions that make Sicilian music stand apart from other traditions. It is this desire and these emotions that touch one’s soul and connect one to others be they our present neighbors or be they a people who lived centuries ago.”
