Interviews in Salle

Sorry, this video is only in Italian, it would be too time consuming to translate it world by world.

I just discovered this video from Takumi’s blog, which I recommend to you all, liuteriatakumi.

I love it because most of these men and women I had the occasion to interview them personally in 2007, and the ones I didn’t are confirming what I knew. I was so happy to see them still healthy after 10 years, they are more than 80 years old now.

I hope you can enjoy this and the Italian atmosphere coming from it despite the language!


By the way, I collected all the interviews that Mimmo Peruffo and I made in Salle in a book which is for sale on Amazon, check it out:

The factories had to invest huge amount of money for disposal
