Orchestra Of Piazza Vittorio (Italian), The

Amid a political and social crack-down on immigration in Rome, a few musicians with the leadership of Mario Tronco created an organization driven by the passion of music and culture to find a way to save the Cinema Apollo Theatre, centered in the Piazza Vittorio. The founding members not only saw a chance to save the theatre but an opportunity to make a change to the urban makeup that occupied Rome. With a man's dream to prevent the government from converting a twentieth-century theatre into a bingo hall, the journey around the globe begins with a search for members of "The Orchestra Of Piazza Vittorio". With years of hard work, financial obstacles and dedication the orchestra gains worldwide notoriety and although the members change, the music continues to travel with the same spirit and dream of resurrecting the Piazza Vittorio.
