Rosalia celebrated by women

Another tribute to the Patroness Santa Rosalia in this intense 4th anniversary year. This time it is the women’s cultural association "Le Rose Bianche" to pay tribute, with an artistic event, to Rosalia, a figure of woman who transmits a spiritual and human message that surpasses time, space and the clichés imposed by history, keeping alive the strength of her presence. Sunday, October 20, at the Church of the Holy Saviour, at 18:00, with the technical collaboration of the Cultural Association "Sikalesh", will be presented, in an original formula of storytelling theater, directed by Patrizia D'Antona, a reading of some historical pictures that refer to the depth of the spiritual life of the people of Palermo, from 1624, the year of the discovery of his bones, to 1693, on the occasion of the great Festino celebrated in thanksgiving for the avoided danger of the earthquake: a pre-text to introduce the audience into intimate wonder through singing, as it is in the sense of the title that refers to the musical suggestions that will be offered with the contribution of the numerous artists, by soprano Felicia Bongiovanni accompanied at the piano by Rosalba Coniglio, the engaging notes of the Trio Panormo, the vocal suggestions of Rosa Ippolito; all as a frame for the narrative framework that will voice the actress Patrizia D'Antona and the historical Giovanna Fiume. An artistic proposal that enriches the year rosaliano that the archbishop Corrado Lorefice wanted to title "Rosalia pilgrim of hope", theme that finds an evocative echo in the show  "In-cantus, Pulchra et aura spei".
