The exchange involves the musical groups of five organizations supported by AMI:
AllegroModerato, an artistic and musical training centre in Milan for the disabled with its InBand, which performs everything from jazz to pop rock, blues and new interpretations of the classics;
CIES with the MaTeMusik Band & Crew, a group composed of youths between the ages of 11 and 25 from various parts of the world;
CivicoZero with the Percussioni di Civico, a group where cultures meet and exchange dialogue through the rhythm of percussion instruments, born within the Centro a bassa soglia of Rome, which deals with socially marginalized, foreign youths at risk of abuse;
CO2 which, together with the rapper Lucariello, conducts a musical composition workshop for youths being held at the Airola juvenile facility in the province of Benevento; and
Rulli Frulli Lab, with its four projects of musical inclusion: the Rulli Frulli Band, Rulli Frullini and the multi-ethnic Banda del Quartiere (neighbourhood bands) of Baranzate and Marinai.
The exchange unites all the musical projects of inclusion that give value to diversity and space to the creativity of the participants, each in his own voice, language and ability, making music together. During the two-day Festival, the musical bands are able to get to know each other and exchange stories, projects and music. Concerts are foreseen along with musical integration meetings with the presentation of various groups as well as informal meetings and training for the youths and operators. The exchange is organized by the Rulli Frulli Band as part of the Rulli Frulli Days Festival, from 31 May to 1 June 2019, which takes place at the Finale Emilia (Modena) Istituti Secondari Agrario e Pedagogico (agrarian and pedagogical institutes). A concert open to the public will take place on 1 June at 5:00 p.m. featuring all the musical groups involved and concluding with a performance of the Rulli Frulli Band along with prominent national singers.
