ABOUT
Giuseppe Moffa is an Italian multi-instrumentalist from the Molise region (Italy) who succeeds in linking the indisputable richness of his land to the blues. Southern Italy’s folk world is the point of departure for a musical tour of discovery, revealing the soul of the songwriter expressed with voice, guitar, and zampogna (Italian bagpipe) and blending rhythm and melody with masterly precision. From contemporary music to jazz and blues, every musical current finds its place in his repertoire.
In June 2010, he released his first album, ‘Non investo in beni immobili’ (I do not invest in real estate), fourteen tracks representing a new expression of Italian folk music in which tradition is enriched by foreign resonances. ‘Terribilmente démodé’ (Terribly démodé) arrived in May 2015. In addition to traditional pieces from Molise, the CD contains original songs, written in Italian and dialect, and two zampogna compositions. ‘Terribilmente démodé’ placed among the top five nominees for the “Targa Tenco,” the highest Italian songwriting award, for the best album in dialect. In 2022, the artist-researcher published “Uauà – un omaggio in musica ad Eugenio Cirese” (Squilibri), a record composed of poems and traditional songs, among the most representative of the work carried out by Eugenio Cirese, a great poet and researcher. With the work "Uauà," Giuseppe Moffa ranked among the top five candidates for the Targa Tenco 2023 as the best dialect album for the second time.
The “Zampogna” (Italian Bagpipe)
Giuseppe Moffa is one of the greatest interpreters of the bagpipe, with his modern approach he has made it a contemporary instrument with which he ranges from rock to classical music. In 2006 he published "Produzione Propria," six original songs for zampogna. In 2012 he founded the "Zampognorchestra," a singular bagpipe quartet. "Bag to the Future" is the debut album of the group in which Giuseppe Moffa writes most of the compositions and orchestrations. The Zampognorchestra would later have numerous experiences including concerts with Hevia and collaboration in Corsica with Toni Casalonga and "A Cumpagnia," on polyphony and traditional Corsican music.
