Donpasta - Food Sound System
Cooking, music, and theater show
The New York Times calls him “one of the most inventive (and in some ways unique) food activists.” He collaborated with Stanley Tucci on Searching for Italy.
Food Sound System is his multimedia project that combines vinyl records and Italian cuisine.
The show has toured the world, bringing the story of Italian cuisine rooted in the past, rich in stories, recipes, and broadcasts.
On stage, he uses music and pots and pans at the same time, mixers and mini blenders to blend music and veloutés. A console, a kitchen counter, stoves and coffee, with good vibes and flour, tender and durum wheat for the irreplaceable hand-cranked “Imperia” that makes tagliatelle. All the senses are called into play:
sight, taste, smell, touch, hearing. The ingredients are local and seasonal. It is a multimedia performance in which you let yourself go to the emotion of food, its scents, colors, shapes, and aromas. The DJ set is spiced with sounds from around the world, including funk, reggae, South America, and multicultural London.
