Lu stasira mi fazzu zita
I Calabruzi
The group “The Calabruzi“, born at the beginnings of the eighties, has got in the name its programme: it wants to be, in fact, an ideal bridge between the today’s Calabrians and the Calabrians of the past: the ancient “Brutii.” The group, magistrally directed by Pino Renda (international prize “The Gold Pine” in 1990 for the folklore), is composed of about 25 elements of both the sexes and it proposes songs and characteristic dances of the popular tradition of Lamezia Terme, a town situated in the middle of the region Calabria, born in 1968 by the unification of the Communes of Nicastro, Sambiase and Sant’Eufemia Lamezia.
