Concertino dal Balconcino *Novembre 01

November has arrived: the *Balconcino* moves to 5 p.m., lights up with artists’ illuminations, and fills the air with the aroma of mulled wine. Distinguished guests on Sunday, November 1: a very young band, the winners of the latest edition of *Pagella non solo rock*, Anacronisti!

There will also be the punk-opera of MCCS, the poetry of Carlo Molinaro, the sounds from outer space of Hook in the Ears, and the advocacy of the citizens’ committee Mamme in piazza per la libertà di dissenso (“Mothers in the Square for Freedom of Dissent”).

Sunday, November 1, at 5 p.m.
Urban Theater — *Concertino dal Balconcino*
3 Via Mercanti, Turin
*Free contribution

A punk writer and an opera singer founded a one-of-a-kind band: MCCS Punklirico. Distorted guitar, explosive drums, walking bass, and a voice that shifts between different intentions and registers. It is punk-opera, inspired by the best-known genre of rock opera, where every song is a story and every live performance a true spectacle.

From Turin, where they live, they made national headlines with their original challenge to the system. In 2011, they transformed the courtyard of their apartment building into a small open-air theater and their home balcony into a stage. For one hour every Sunday afternoon, they created an unprecedented cultural experiment—a veritable urban-art hub, the Concertino dal Balconcino (“Little Balcony Concert”).

Over the course of fifteen years, they have put on more than 700 concerts, involving over 2,000 artists and 80,000 spectators.
