Lou Reed plays Berlin
One of the album's that made a part of rock history reinterpreted in theatrical key. A fascinating and complex set - around thirty artists onstage and surrounding projections - that emphasise the work's natural pathos, thanks to Julian Schnabel refined direction, which has just been awarded a prize at Cannes.
Thrsday 12 july (19.30 – 24.00)
Disco not Disco: Daft Punk, LCD Soundsystem & Who Made Who
The French princes of techno, who haven’t played in Italy for years, put on a show which seems to come from the future. Next to them, the New York band that today best embodies the symbiosis between rock and dance, an enterprise which the Danish trio that opens the evening has also faced.
Friday 13 july (20.00 – 24.00)
Brit Parade: Arctic Monkeys, The Coral & Art Brut; special guests: Fuh
Beatle’s numbers with their first album, and their recent Favourite Worst Nightmare is no less. Incredibly young and yet extraordinarily mature, Arctic Monkeys are the freshest and most dynamic rock group around. Their countrymen Coral and Art Brut also promise to live up to the event.
Saturday 14 july (20.00 – 24.00)
Ampie visioni nel vuoto: Franco Battiato, Antony & The Johnsons, Ivan Segreto and the extraordinary partecipation of Subsonica
Not just a concert, even though it is the artist’s from Catania’s first stop on the long-awaited tour after the February release of the album, Il vuoto. It is an entire evening dedicated to him, who – with no restraints or conditions whatsoever – chose the partners that most pleased him, from Subsonica to the new transgender icon, Antony Hagerty.
