Cuglieri: concert against the fires 2 years after the great fire

A concert for Montiferru to soothe the still open wounds of the fires of 2021, with two international masters in the Chiostro dei Cappuccini, tonight at 21.30.

The melodies of the masters Fulvio Liviabella, violinist of the Scala in Milan, and Federica Sainaghi, internationally renowned harpist, will embellish the "Concerto per il Montiferru". An artistic moment of profound reflection organized by the Friends of Music Association of Cuglieri, with the patronage of the municipal administration and the Montiferru Association, which for two years has been involved in projects for the regeneration and recovery of the territories hit by the flames.

Liviabella and Sainaghi, friendly ties to the community of Cuglieri that they have frequented for some time, have made their music available so that even through art we can nurture moments of awareness capable of generating energy that favors new recovery actions throughout the territory. The initiative is open to all with free admission.

The Montiferru Association has been active in the area for two years for the regeneration of forests and agricultural heritage, with concrete actions in partnership with important private companies who wanted to support the rebirth of the area with their own resources.

For three days, from 23 to 25 July 2021, the fury of the flames devoured Montiferru, one of the most characteristic territories and landscapes of Sardinia. 13 thousand hectares that went up in smoke among olive groves, pastures and woods of the Mediterranean maquis. Even the millenary wild olive tree of sa Tanca Manna in Cuglieri, a patriarch of Sardinia's monumental trees, has been incinerated right down to its roots. However, good luck would have it that a small strip of its root system, after an accurate daily care work ensured by the volunteers of the Montiferru Association, managed to survive by giving birth, in April 2022, to three shoots which throughout the whole territory they have become a symbol of hope and rebirth, an added value that the people who populate these places need so much.
