<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>“HERE’S TO YOU”: 89 ANNI DOPO, L’INNO DEI DIRITTI UMANI PER TUTTI I SACCO E VANZETTI DI OGGI</b></p>
<p><b>Il video finale con quanti hanno risposto all’appello di Roberto Saviano e Amnesty International Italia è online </b><b>su </b><a href="http://www.herestoyou.it/index.php?l=it%22%20%5Cl%20%22video-grid"><b>herestoyou.it</b></a></p>
<p><b>Il 23 agosto del 1927 gli italiani Nicola Sacco e Bartolomeo Vanzetti venivano messi a morte ingiustamente negli Usa. A 89 anni di distanza, l’inno per i diritti umani in loro onore risuona per tutti i Sacco e Vanzetti di oggi</b>. In memoria di Nicola e Bartolomeo e per tutti i Sacco e Vanzetti di oggi numerosi attivisti, difensori dei diritti umani, artisti italiani e internazionali, persone comuni dall’Italia e dall’estero hanno risposto all’appello di Roberto Saviano e Amnesty International Italia a cantare “Here’s to you”. Un omaggio speciale, un’unica voce per contrastare le ingiustizie che preferiscono il silenzio.</p>
<p><b>Nel 2016</b>,<b> Roberto Saviano</b>, l&#8217;autore di “Gomorra” e “Zero zero zero” che denuncia da anni le violenze dello stato e del crimine organizzato, <b>ha</b> <b>invitato tutti a far sentire la propria voce e cantare</b> <b>“Here’s to you”</b>, la ballata di Joan Baez ed Ennio Morricone<b> </b>che negli anni ’70 onorò la storia di Nicola Sacco e Bartolomeo Vanzetti, <b>per tutti i Sacco e Vanzetti di oggi</b>.</p>
<p>Sono passati quasi 90 anni da quando i due anarchici italiani furono ingiustamente messi a morte negli Usa per le loro idee, ma <b>ancora oggi i diritti umani vengono costantemente violati</b> in tutto il mondo, Italia inclusa. <b>In Messico, 43</b> <b>studenti sono desaparecidos</b> dal settembre 2014, <b>in Arabia Saudita</b> <b>Raif Badawi</b> è stato condannato al carcere e a 1000 frustate per aver creato un blog, <b>in Cina</b> <b>Liu Xia e suo marito Liu Xiaobo</b> sono privati della libertà per aver chiesto riforme democratiche, <b>in Italia Federico Aldrovandi, Stefano Cucchi, Riccardo Magherini, Francesco Mastrogiovanni</b>, <b>Giuseppe Uva </b>sono tutti morti mentre erano affidati allo Stato.</p>
<p><b>Tornare a cantare “Here’s to you”</b> significa mostrare che <b>la lotta alle ingiustizie non è finita</b> e che tutti i Sacco e Vanzetti di oggi non sono soli: perché questo inno per i diritti umani diventi il <b>simbolo dell’impegno di Amnesty International in Italia e nel mondo</b>, insieme a quanti crederanno che <b>il mondo sarà migliore quando sentiremo nostre le ingiustizie del mondo</b>.</p>
<p><b>I Sacco e Vanzetti di oggi </b></p>
<p>La storia di Sacco e Vanzetti è diventata il simbolo dell’irrimediabillità della pena di morte, grazie anche al lavoro di sensibilizzazione di <b>Maria Fernanda Sacco</b>,<b> </b>nipote di Nicola Sacco e presidente onoraria dell’Associazione Sacco &amp; Vanzetti di Torremaggiore, paese d’origine di Nicola Sacco. Fernanda e la sua associazione si battono da sempre per tenere vivo il ricordo del clamoroso errore giudiziario in onore delle vittime innocenti Nicola e Bartolomeo e hanno risposto all’appello di Roberto Saviano e Amnesty International Italia in favore di tutti i Sacco e Vanzetti di oggi.</p>
<p>Anche<b> </b>gli attivisti, vittime e difensori dei diritti<b> </b>umani come<b> Ales Bialatski</b>,<b> Hortence Lougué</b> e <b>Kiswendsida Noelie Kouragio</b>, <b>Guido Magherini</b>, <b>Porpora Marcasciano</b>,<b> Kasha Jacqueline Nabagesera</b>,<b> Marisela Ortiz</b>, <b>Mimi Tao, Donatella Rovera</b>,<b> Flaviano Bianchini</b>,<b> Karl Guillen</b>,<b> Sepideh Jodeyri</b>,<b> Wu’er Kaixi</b>,<b> Tawakkul Karman</b>, <b>Fiorello Miguel Lebbiati</b>,<b> Oscar Martinez</b>,<b> Sanjay Verma</b>,<b> Said Yacoub, Rachid Mesli </b>hanno sostenuto la campagna “Here’s to you”.</p>
<p><b>Tutti i video degli attivisti insieme alle loro storie sono online su </b><a href="http://herestoyou.it/"><b>herestoyou.it</b></a></p>
<p><b>Gli artisti che hanno risposto all’appello</b></p>
<p>Numerosi artisti hanno aderito, anche grazie alla collaborazione con <b>Webnotte</b>, il webshow con Gino Castaldo e Ernesto Assante in onda su <b>Repubblica.it</b>:<b> Stefano Accorsi</b> e <b>Matilda De Angelis</b>, <b>Paolo Angeli</b>, <b>Renato Ardovino</b>, <b>Micol Arpa</b>, <b>Ernesto Assante </b>con<b> Gino Castaldo</b>, <b>Jonis Bascir</b>, <b>Canzoniere grecanico salentino</b>, <b>Cesare Bocci</b>, <b>Stefano Bollani</b>, <b>Erica Boschiero</b>, <b>Bussoletti</b>, <b>Cécile</b> con <b>Piotta</b>, <b>Ascanio Celestini</b>, <b>Tommaso Cerasuolo</b> <b>(Perturbazione)</b>, <b>Daniela “Dada” Loi</b> con <b>Mark Hanna</b>, <b>Tullio De Piscopo</b>, <b>Cristiana Dell’Anna</b>, <b>Elio e le storie tese</b>, <b>Francesco Gabbani</b>, <b>Umberto Maria Giardini</b>, <b>Jo Harman</b>, <b>Kris Grove </b>con<b> Bocephus King</b>, <b>Lillo</b> con <b>Stefano Fresi</b> e <b>Fausto Brizzi</b>, <b>Modena City Ramblers</b>, <b>Moni Ovadia</b>, <b>Stefano Nosei</b>, <b>Gregory Porter</b>, <b>Michele Riondino</b> con <b>Federica Fracassi</b>, <b>Guido Sodo </b>ed <b>Eleonora Montagnana</b>, <b>Moseek</b>, <b>Ron</b>, <b>Paolo Ruffini</b> e <b>Diana Del Bufalo</b>, <b>Enrico Ruggeri</b>, <b>Isabel Russinova</b>, <b>Santa Margaret</b>, <b>Saturnino</b>, <b>Lidia Schillaci</b>, <b>Davide Shorty</b>, <b>Lisa Simmons &#8211; Hippie Tendencies</b>, <b>Paola Turci</b>, <b>Chiara Vidonis</b>, <b>Cristina Zavalloni</b>, <b>Jordi Zindel. </b></p>
<p>Inoltre,<b> Luca Barbarossa</b>, conduttore dell’edizione 2016 del Concerto del Primo Maggio a Roma, ha scelto di aprire la manifestazione dedicando e cantando l’inno dei diritti umani “Here’s to you” alla ricerca di verità e giustizia sul caso di Giulio Regeni.</p>
<p><b>Tutti i video degli artisti e delle persone che hanno risposto all’appello sono online su </b><a href="http://www.herestoyou.it/gallery.php?l=it"><b>herestoyou.it</b></a></p>
<p>Il video-appello di Saviano è stato realizzato da <b>Saatchi &amp; Saatchi</b> in collaborazione con Think Cattleya, per la regia di Bosi &amp; Sironi, disponibile in formati video e radio da 30’’. Grazie a SIAE per l’aiuto e la collaborazione nel rilascio della licenza. Le persone che hanno risposto all’appello hanno avuto la possibilità di registrare o up-loadare un <b>video della canzone</b> attraverso il sito <a href="http://herestoyou.it/">herestoyou.it</a> e di partecipare, far sentire la propria voce e seguire la campagna sui social network usando l&#8217;hashtag <b>#herestoyou </b></p>
<p>Oggi 23 agosto con il videoclip finale si ricordano Sacco e Vanzetti e tutti coloro che nel mondo hanno subito o stanno subendo ingiustizie, violazioni, soprusi. Un’unica voce per contrastare le ingiustizie che preferiscono il silenzio.</p>

<p>Lisa &amp; Marco, who are currently crowdfunding <a href=" https://igg.me/at/notespeak/x/1040963">#NoteSpeak</a>, are delighted to announce <strong>Machan Taylor</strong>’s participation in the project. Her vocal talents have graced live performances &amp; recordings by some of the world’s most celebrated musicians (folks like <strong>Pink Floyd, Sting, Natalie Merchant, George Benson</strong> etc. etc.). So hurrah yay yippee that we have the opportunity to feature her beautiful soprano within these songs.. some of which speak about themes which are at the heart of <strong>Amnesty International</strong>’s mission. A serendipitous event has connected us to Amnesty&#8217;s <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/herestoyou?source=feed_text&amp;story_id=10154068079898850">#‎herestoyou</a> campaign, as the style and content of our version of the song is very similar to our new project, “<strong>NoteSpeak</strong>”  . You can see our performance on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9weB5fjHZ4 ">Amnesty&#8217;s Youtube</a>  If you were each to send 5 Euros today our campaign would surpass its goal; elevating the final product, allowing you to pick up the final CD and for a couple bucks more, some sensational swag as well. If you’re not inspired to contribute to #NoteSpeak (or indeed even if you are!) we ask you to please listen to <a href=" http://www.hereistoyou.it/gallery.php?l=en"><strong>Roberto Saviano</strong></a>&#8216;s appeal and contribute your own versions of this tribute to Sacco and Vanzetti in the name of every victim of human rights violations. We invite you to, as Amnesty says, “take injustice personally”.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Lisa e Marco, che stanno attualmente facendo crowdfunding <strong><a href="https://igg.me/at/notespeak/x/1040963">#NoteSpeak</a></strong>, sono lieti di annunciare la partecipazione di <strong>Machan Taylor</strong> al progetto. Le sue doti vocali hanno arricchito esibizioni dal vivo e registrazioni di alcuni dei musicisti più celebri al mondo (gente come Pink Floyd, Sting, Natalie Merchant, George Benson ecc ecc). Quindi evviva yay yippee che abbiamo la possibilità di avere la sua bella voce di soprano nei nostri brani.</p>
<p>Alcune di queste canzoni parlano di temi che sono al centro della missione di Amnesty International e un evento fortuito ci ha collegato alla campagna #herestoyou di Amnesty, lo stile e il contenuto della nostra versione della canzone è molto simile al nostro nuovo progetto, &#8220; NoteSpeak &#8220;. Si può vedere la nostra cover sulla pagina <strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9weB5fjHZ4">Youtube di Amnesty </a></strong>. Se ognuno di voi inviasse 5 euro oggi, la nostra campagna avrebbe superato il suo obiettivo; voi avreste il prodotto finale e, per un paio di dollari in più, qualche festone sensazionale pure. Se non vuoi aiutare noi ti chiediamo di ascoltare comunque l&#8217;appello di <strong><a href="http://www.hereistoyou.it/gallery.php?l=e">Roberto Saviano</a></strong> e contribuire con la tua versione di questo omaggio a Sacco e Vanzetti, in nome di ogni vittima delle violazioni dei diritti umani. Ti invitiamo a, come dice Amnesty, &#8220;take injustice personally&#8221;. <a href="http://www.hereistoyou.it/gallery.php?l=en"><br />

<p>Hey Everybody! We have exciting news, we are so happy that the cause of human rights, so close to our hearts, one we’ve been championing for years, as have been so many of you, has been brought to light, yet again by the tireless folk at Amnesty International in the form of their campaign “Here’s to You”. A video with our version of the song which we recorded for Hippie Tendencies second album “Identity” (my introduction on stage scarily similar to Roberto Saviano’s introduction of their campaign of the same name on their website) is now <a title="online" href="http://www.hereistoyou.it/gallery.php?l=en  ">online</a>. We ask you to please listen to his appeal and contribute your own versions of this tribute to Sacco and Vanzetti in the name of every victim of human rights violations. We invite you to, as Amnesty says, “take injustice personally”.</p>
<p>This is serendipitous as the style and content of our version of the song is very similar to our new project #<a title="NoteSpeak" href="https://igg.me/at/notespeak/x/1040963">NoteSpeak</a> which we are currently crowdfunding. If you my dears were each to send 5 Euros today our campaign would surpass its goal; elevating the final product, allowing you to pick up the final CD and for a couple bucks more, some sensational swag as well <img src='http://www.hippietendencies.eu/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Love to all ya’ll and please help us spread words and music that nurture hope and peace.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Miei cari,</p>
<p>abbiamo una novità eccitante! Siamo veramente felici del fatto che la causa dei diritti umani, così vicina ai nostri cuori, causa che sosteniamo da anni, come molti di voi, sia stata portata alla luce ancora una volta dagli instancabili membri di Amnesty International nella forma della loro campagna &#8220;Here&#8217;s to you&#8221;. Un video&#8230;.è <a title="ora on line" href="http://www.hereistoyou.it/gallery.php?l=en ">ora on line</a>. Impossibile non ricordare quanto la presentazione che ne ho fatto on stage fosse simile a quella che Roberto Saviano fa della campagna che porta lo stesso nome sul sito di Amnesty. Vi chiediamo di voler ascoltare l&#8217;appello dello scrittore e di voler contribuire offrendo le vostre versioni di questo tributo a Sacco e Vanzetti in nome di tutti coloro che subiscono violazioni dei diritti umani.</p>
<p>Tutto ciò rappresenta una coincidenza fortuita poiché lo stile ed il contenuto della canzone è molto simile al nostro nuovo progetto #<a title="NoteSpeak" href="https://igg.me/at/notespeak/x/1040963">Notespeak</a> per il quale stiamo attualmente facendo crowdfunding. Se ognuno di voi miei cari 3000 dovesse inviare 5 euro oggi, la mia campagna andrebbe oltre il suo obiettivo: promuovere il prodotto finale, farvi avere il CD completo e, con pochi spiccioli in più, anche un sensazionale bottino!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="https://igg.me/at/notespeak/x/1040963"> </a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Un abbraccio a tutti e per favore aiutateci a diffondere parole e musica che sono il nutrimento della pace e della speranza.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Founding members Lisa Marie Simmons and Marco Cremaschini&#8217;s brand new side project Notespeak is a poetic/musical album, partially inspired by artists like <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/thelastpoets?source=feed_text&amp;story_id=10153504636747776">#‎TheLastPoets</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/brianjackson?source=feed_text&amp;story_id=10153504636747776">#‎BrianJackson</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/gilscottheron?source=feed_text&amp;story_id=10153504636747776">#‎GilScottHeron</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/vijayiver?source=feed_text&amp;story_id=10153504636747776">#‎VijayIver</a> &amp; Mike Ladd and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/danabryant?source=feed_text&amp;story_id=10153504636747776">#‎DanaBryant</a>.

<p><strong>A Simmons Family Christmas with The Downbeat Trio</strong></p>
<p>Miles Simmons voce</p>
<p>Lisa Simmons voce</p>
<p>Marco Cremaschini piano</p>
<p>The Downbeat Trio offer a very intimate and fresh approach to the classic</p>
<p>Christmas concert. The concert they present takes a modern look at many of the</p>
<p>old American Christmas classics like “Let it Snow” or “We Wish You A Merry</p>
<p>Christmas” , international classics such as “Silent Night” as well as including</p>
<p>more recent modern pop hits like U2’s “One”, Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” and</p>
<p>“What a Wonderful World” which are imbued with the Christmas spirit, if not</p>
<p>Christmas songs per se. They perform these, without however discarding a few</p>
<p>traditional African American traditional Gospel or Spiritual songs Like “Oh Happy</p>
<p>Day” and “Amazing Grace”. Lisa and Miles will also tell the fascinating stories</p>
<p>behind the songs, details which most listeners are unaware of and amused to</p>
<p>discover, along with memories of their childhood Christmas’ and the American</p>
<p>traditions that surround the holiday.</p>
<p>D.C. and Chicago based American singing sensation Miles Simmons brings his</p>
<p>talents to continental Europe and is touring exclusively with established Italian</p>
<p>based country/rock/funk band, Granny Says and the newly formed Downbeat</p>
<p>Trio. A former member of one of the military’s premiere musical organizations,</p>
<p>Miles has sung for President Barack Obama and the First Lady at the White</p>
<p>House, President George and Laura Bush, and President Bill and Hillary Clinton.</p>
<p>In addition, he has sung back up for several luminaries which include: John</p>
<p>Secada, Natalie Cole, Kenny Rogers, LeAnn Womack, Wynona Judd, American</p>
<p>Idol runner-up Jessica Sanchez, BeBe and CeCe Winans, Michael Feinstein,</p>
<p>Candice Glover, Clint Holmes, Tony Danza, Sylvia McNair, and most recently</p>
<p>Renee Fleming at the internationally broadcast 2014 Super Bowl XLVIII. He is</p>
<p>also a veteran of the theater having toured in U.S. national tours such as “The</p>
<p>Original Broadway Swing”, “Five Guys Named Moe”, “Ain’t Misbehavin”, and ”</p>
<p>Smokey Joe’s Cafe” and spent two years with “Miss Saigon” in Stuttgart,</p>
<p>Germany. http://www.milessimmons.com</p>
<p>Miles joins musical forces with sister Lisa Marie Simmons &amp; Marco Cremaschini</p>
<p>who are co-founders of the band Hippie Tendencies (http://</p>
<p>www.hippietendencies.com ) based in Italy performing Blues, Jazz and</p>
<p>Americana with their own unique interpretation. Lisa has written and recorded</p>
<p>several pop and dance tunes topping dance charts in 1998. She has been</p>
<p>performing live throughout Europe for many years playing festivals and smaller</p>
<p>venues as well as national television in France (Hit Machine M6), Italy (Focus Rai</p>

<p>pianist with extensive live and recording experience and is well known and</p>
<p>respected throughout Italy and the EU. Among others, he has collaborated with</p>
<p>several artists well followed in Italy such as: Silvia Dalla Noce, Kay Foster</p>
<p>Jackson, and San Remo finalist Jenny B, as well as the renowned Cheryl Porter.</p>
<p>He also scored Andrea Romano’s short film Travolti da un solido destino: http://</p>

<p>Lisa and Marco have also been honored with several awards including, but not</p>

<p>Italy for Art, Music and Entertainment, the 2013 Empower Music and Arts for a</p>
<p>positive music award from Florida U.S.A. and the lead song from The Italian</p>
<p>Project (album co-written with Bob Story and Lisa Bell), “Bring the Love”, was</p>
<p>one of the winners of the first Colorado Music Business Organization’s</p>
<p>Songwriting Contest in the Americana category with a second song from the</p>

<p><strong>A Simmons Family Christmas with The Downbeat Trio</strong></p>
<p>Il “Downbeat Trio” offre un approccio molto intimo e fresco al</p>
<p>classico concerto di Natale. Nello spettacolo sono presentati con</p>
<p>una veste moderna i vecchi classici americani di Natale come “Let</p>
<p>It Snow&#8221; o &#8220;We Wish You A Merry Christmas&#8221;, classici</p>
<p>internazionali come &#8220;Silent Night&#8221;, così come successi pop più</p>
<p>recenti come Leonard Cohen &#8220;Hallelujah”, U2 “One” e &#8220;What a</p>
<p>Wonderful World” . Tutti brani che sono permeati dello spirito</p>
<p>natalizio, anche se non sono veri e propri canti natalizi.</p>
<p>Ovviamente un’attenzione particolare viene data alla tradizione</p>
<p>afro-americana, Gospel o Spiritual, canzoni come &#8220;Oh Happy</p>
<p>Day&#8221; e &#8220;Amazing Grace&#8221; ma anche altre meno scontate.</p>
<p>Lisa e Miles racconteranno le affascinanti storie dietro le canzoni,</p>
<p>i dettagli e gli aneddoti che la maggior parte del pubblico non</p>
<p>conosce e che si divertirà a scoprire. Lisa e Miles ricorderanno</p>
<p>poi, insieme al pubblico, il Natale ‘della loro gioventù e le</p>
<p>tradizioni americane che circondano il periodo delle festività.</p>
<p>Il sensazionale cantante Miles Simmons, di casa a Washington</p>
<p>DC e Chicago, porta il suo talento per l’Europa continentale ed è</p>
<p>in tour con The Downbeat Trio.</p>

<p>militari, Miles ha cantato per il presidente Barack Obama e la First</p>
<p>Lady alla Casa Bianca, il presidente George e Laura Bush, e il</p>
<p>presidente Bill e Hillary Clinton.</p>
<p>Inoltre, ha cantato come corista per diversi importanti artisti tra i</p>
<p>quali: John Secada, Natalie Cole, Kenny Rogers, LeAnn</p>
<p>Womack, Wynona Judd, American Idol runner-up Jessica</p>
<p>Sanchez, BeBe and CeCe Winans, Michael Feinstein, Candice</p>
<p>Glover, Clint Holmes, Tony Danza, e recentemente, a televisione</p>
<p>per Renee Fleming al Super Bowl XLVIII per un audienze</p>
<p>internationale.</p>
<p>E’ anche un veterano del teatro,che lo ha visto protagonista nei</p>
<p>tour nazionali Statunitensi come “The Original Broadway Swing”,</p>
<p>“Five Guys Named Moe”, “Ain’t Misbehavin”, e “Smokey Joe</p>
