Hypnotic Pizzica - Viaggio Popolare Live - Aria Caddhipulina | Galatone

Experience the enchanting, hypnotic power of traditional Salentino music! This video captures the mesmerizing opening violin intro to "Aria Caddhipulina" (The Air of Gallipoli), performed live by Viaggio Popolare during a high-octane concert in Galatone. "Aria Caddhipulina" is one of the most famous and evocative songs in the pizzica repertoire. This classic piece carries a beautifully lyrical, haunting melody that traditionally serves as a passionate serenade of love, devotion, and the sea breezes of the Ionian coast. Viaggio Popolare Lineup: Luigi Marra – Lead Violin/Fiddle, Vocals & Tambourine Davide Donno – Vocals & Frame Drums / Tamburello Giuseppe Anglano – Vocals & Accordion / Bellows Instruments Filmed live in Salento as part of my ongoing summer 2026 travelogue documenting the deep musical roots, historic town festivals, and living cultural heritage of southern Italy.
