Ho sempre subito il fascino della Ghironda. Sarà per quella forma dai volumi insoliti, le ricche decorazioni e gli intagli che vi trovano spazio e quella magnifica manovella che ingenera il suono. Così mi sono inventato un modo per raggiungere la bottega di questo autentico maestro ai piedi delle Alpi Piemontesi. Delle Ghironde prodotte negli ultimi 40 anni in Italia, un mercato chiaramente di nicchia, potete scommetterci che molte sono uscite dalla sua mente e dalle sue mani. Sottile e alto come un giunco, lavora in un vecchio monastero da cui ha ricavato anche la sua casa. Ha ristrutturato tutto con l'abilità delle sue mani e pochissimi denari. Mi ha accolto con generosità, come si addice a chi ha familiarità nell'arte dell'incontro, che forse è davvero la più fondamentale della vita. Parliamo della sua storia di uomo, delle scelte di libertà che lo hanno sempre guidato. Dissacratore e serafico, ma anche colto e sensibile, ha saputo regalarmi molte espressioni da quel volto di gomma, sempre pronto a rispondere alle sollecitazioni della conversazione. La Ghironda, strumento di origine umile, ha accompagnato mendicanti e vagabondi per le strade del mondo, oltre a consentire ai contadini del nord ovest di racimolare qualche soldo lontano da casa prima che venisse il tempo del raccolto. Forse mi è simpatica proprio per questo suo essere rimasta fuori dal circuito della musica accademica conservando tra le fibre dei legni che la compongono uno spirito poeticamente ramingo.

Mauro you are absolutely right. The one he is holding is a nykelharpa he was working on when I arrived. The hurdy-gurdies are in the background. He is known for those. But every now and then he also produces other instruments of the time. Thank you for the attention you paid to this shot and the story it tells.
Greetings.
