Sul finire dell'avara stagione 2007, uninattesa svolta invernale ci ha condotto fino in Svizzera alla ricerca della neve migliore. Abbiamo così colto loccasione per assistere alla leggendaria competizione di sci estremo che si svolge ogni anno a Verbier sul Bec Des Rosses. Abbiamo documentato levento con questo video amatoriale che, seppur lontano ed un po tremolante, rende bene lidea, mostrando come lo spirito di competizione possa spingere luomo al di là del labile confine tra sport e follia. Anche se non condividiamo appieno la filosofia di queste manifestazioni, ci piace comunque pubblicare questo clip, se non altro per nulla togliere a questi atleti, davvero straordinari. At the end of the past season, we headed for Switzerland running after some unexpected snowfalls, so we had the opportunity to watch the famous freeskiing competition happening every year in Verbier, on the Bec des Rosses, Mont Fort area. We reported the event on this videoclip, that shows how the competition can push these athletes over the limits between sport and insanity. We dont fully agree with the philosophy of similar events, anyway we like to show this video, because these athletes are really extraordinary.

Variations on a Theme of Paganini Two prima donnas of the piano having a relaxing moment. Just by looking at Martha's face you realize how humble and incredible human being she is =) I specially like Gabrielita's smile at the beginning of the performance, it clearly reveals the great sense of musicality and companionship these two prima donnas have. Gabrielita rockssss!!! No one is trying to overshadow the other.

good old days
