Sulamuri nasce nel 2020 come progetto inserito nelle attività di Diaphonia Edizioni.
Si occupa di canzoni in siciliano in un contesto simile alla tradizione dei cantastorie, ma con linguaggi e sonorità attuali.
I componenti di Sulamuri , tutti musicisti di formazione classica, puntano a una simbiosi fra tradizioni – classiche e popolari – e le sperimentazioni.

Possono emozionarci ancora vicende di duemila anni fa? Naturalmente, se si tratta di Gaio Valerio Catullo, poeta vissuto nel I secolo a.C. che scrive di vita, politica e sentimenti con linguaggio schietto e commovente.

Cosa succede se ciò rivive, in lingua siciliana, in uno spettacolo teatrale dove le frontiere tra testo e musica svaniscono? La nascita di Odiamuri, che combina musica originale, dai suoni freschi e moderni, testi che oscillano abilmente tra diversi registri e una rilettura di alcuni versi del grande poeta.
Spettacolo fruibile piacevolmente da tutti, non solo da chi ha studiato letteratura latina nei suoi anni scolastici.
Sconsigliato ad un pubblico minore di 14 anni.
