QUADRI SONORI
SENSIBILI ACQUE
Take part in an artistic adventure accessible to everyone, immersing yourself in a piece of painting art using other senses besides the gaze. Painting, sounds and a sensory platform come together for a unique experience. This installation featured a view by Kaspar Van Wittel on Adda River (Milan, Italy) and the soundscape of the painting has been recreated by musician and music therapist Tia Airoldi after a diligent study of historical audio testimonies, in order to bring the painting back to life. Created with Ginevra Bocconcelli and Valeria Lacorte (project managers) and Cesare Benedetti (Italian Sign Language interpreter. Supported bt Life Is Live by Smart Italia - Fondazione Cariplo.
IL CORPO
DELLA MUSICA
In this accessible workshop we explore the music of an orchestra and a choir through our sensory platforms in search of the internal connections between body, time and space and the meanings of the universal language of music. How does a Rossini crescendo make us feel? And how playful can a violin pizzicato be? How much melancholy in a trumpet solo? And again, why does the Star Wars theme really make us imagine floating in space and how can a relaxing massage of a cello playing Bach make us feel? A truly unique moment for those who wanted to approach music and sound in a new way.
giselle accessibile
Art Accessibility. Music and body of Giselle (classical ballet, 1841) in the vision of the great choreographer Mats Ek have become accessible to the blind, deaf and non-disabled public thanks to the work with Associazione Fedora and to the vibrations of the sensory platforms. Talking about music in silence is always a great emotion and a potential to continue to explore. A real honor to know and lead the meeting with Pompea Santoro, dancer and assistant of Mats Ek for 25 years, 100 times in the role of Giselle. Vignale In Danza Festival.
la stanza elementare
Stanza Elementare is a multisensory artistic installation inspired by the four elements: earth, fire, air and water. The purpose of the performance is to reconnect the person to the heritage of shared sound memories that already belong to him and that inhabit the world around him. This is also achieved through the olfactory experience, with a series of dedicated fragrances. You enter one at a time, approaching the various experiences in succession. In the center, a sensory platform allows sound interaction even for the deaf through vibrations. The installation is part of the No Limits project, at the Pergine Festival and is fully accessible to people with sensory disabilities.
PROGETTO ZOE
𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗼 𝗭𝗼𝗲 is a path of playful activities aimed at bringing deaf children, aged 7 to 11, closer to reading and writing, promoting their participation in social and cultural life. The stories will be told by a hearing actor and a signing deaf actor and facilitated by the sound compositions of a musician. The LIS interpreter will be present for the entire duration of the event.

PA(e)SSAGGI SONORI
This workshop, led by musician and music therapist Tia Airoldi, wanted to explore the soundscape around and inside of us at the time of the pandemic.
By developing listening attitudes and working on the sampling and composition of the sounds that surround us every day, the group has developed a very personal inner creative path, discovering new spaces that, perhaps, we did not even know we had before.
IN UTERO
This sound - art installation represents a journey into the most ancient sound memories into the maternal womb to reconnect the individual to his own reality.
Sound has been made accessible to the deaf thanks to sensory platforms. The exhibition, organized by Associazione Culturale Fedora was presented in Milan, in the public library of Via Valvassori-Peroni in December 2019.
TH INK ATMOSPHERE
The Ink Atmosphere is an audio-visual performance where the original folk-bluesy vein of singer-songwriter Tia Airoldi (Lou Moon, The Please) blends with the mastery of the illustration lines and calligraphy of the Bonora Brothers (Stefano and Mattia). It is a concert in which words, songs and visual arts combine to create an atmosphere: Inchiostro atmosphere.
The show aims to be a free double interpretation, which continues to bounce from the musical to the visual level and where Tia Airoldi's lyrics will give life to a planned but always new live painting for each performance. Mattia Bonora's calligraphy will imprint textual extracts with tempera, paints and inks while Stefano Bonora's creative verve will generate figures of great visual impact.
The musical atmospheres will vary from warm and dusty new blues songs to sweet folk ballads, without neglecting some psychedelic and experimental moments.
Following the concept dear to all the members of The Ink Atmosphere of "less is more", the show will deliberately have a constitution based on essentiality: a physical place centrally occupied by the musician and framed by panels on which the artistic performance of the Brothers will be manifested.
musicoterapia
I am a trained music therapist and I deal with personalized courses regarding the integration and harmonization of people who have a series of specific needs. After a four-year course of study, I specialized under the guidance of Dr. Alfredo Raglio at ICSS Maugeri in Pavia. I currently run a music therapy workshop in a drug rehabilitation community (AGA Pontirolo, Bergamo) and other projects with private individuals.
VORREI ESSERE LEI
The show is written, performed and sung by the actress Valeria Girelli, who tries to daringly intertwine her life with that of six women who have made the history of international music: Nina Simone, Etta James, Aretha Franklin, Beyoncé, Alicia Keys and Lady Gaga.
Through anecdotes and tragicomic personal stories, the audience will get to know these multifaceted artists and discover their personalities, fragilities, struggles and victories.
The monologue alternates songs with moments of narration, in a form that blends song theater with stand-up comedy.
"Vorrei Essere Lei" ("I wish I were her!") thinks the actress, dreaming of a life apparently better, or in any case different from hers.
But the aspiration to be them could unleash something unpredictable...
Live music by The Papillomas (Tia Airoldi, Marco Gilioli, Alberto Mariotti)
lullabies
"Lullabies" concept album is created by Tia Airoldi and Marco Gilioli.
The duo here condensed their musical research in a pure and minimalist direction,
where smooth soundscapes are created by the joint embroidery of piano, voice and guitar,
with old-fashioned flavors.
Songs and synaesthetic experiences define the sound fabric and live performance
in a continuous reference to the boundaries between wakefulness and sleep.
A creation to transmit lulling, immersive and primarily human sensations,
exactly as in the intention behind the lullabies, the first form of
trans-modal communication and emotional attunement between individuals.
