Banda Cittá Ruvo Di Puglia

Banda Cittá Ruvo Di Puglia

Banda Cittá Ruvo Di Puglia is an Italian folk group focused on the brass band traditions of Apulia. The banda tradition originated during the 19th century as a way to bring operatic and classical music to the rural poor and evolved into a form of music played primarily during Holy Week and funeral marches.

Banda Cittá Ruvo Di Puglia was founded in the 1990s as a means of reviving this lost art. Conceived by Pino Minafra, this "banda" is composed of former students at the Conservatory of Music in Bari who studied under legendary film composer Nino Rota. Lucilla Galeazzi provided vocals for the 1996 CD release, "La Banda".
