Under the tree's voices

Francesca Manfrini - 3D-3Dinamiche, Under the tree's voices

«I was told that in Salerno, the center of ancient medicine, special maps were used to annotate and indicate the territories where contagious and epidemic diseases, particularly scabies, plague, and some pandemics, were rampant. But I have not found these maps. At sea, one can never find everything they seek. In the Mediterranean, it is much easier to find what was not expected.»

Predrag Matvejevic, Breviario Mediterraneo


Francesca Manfrini of 3D-3dinamiche explores in Under The Tree’s Voices the relationship between man and nature through the perception of a “rediscovered” forest, lived again through its spaces, sounds, silences, and emotions: to trace the sense of human harmony with a vital essence like the Tree. Music, composed by Ezio Bosso as a tribute to the trees of the Bosco che Suona, the resonance spruces of the Paneveggio Forest in Val di Fiemme, from whose wood the most prestigious musical instruments have been made since the time of Stradivari, plays a co-starring role.
