Pino Daniele: Neapolitan, Italian, and World Citizen

Interview with the musician about his latest album, La Grande Madre [The Great Mother], which combines the blues and Mediterranean music. “Italy is the center of the Mediterranean. Its culture has not only been affected over time and influenced by Arab as well as African and European music, but also by the blues and American music.” Pino Daniele will be in New York (Apollo Theatre, June 7), Boston (Berklee Performance Center, June 9), and Washington, DC (Jazz Festival, June 10).
