“Poetry was never meant for the page. Even less so was music. Both were and ever will remain for audiences to listen to, to be moved by, to be entertained by. They complement each other perfectly. Never more so than when Antonio Riva's "Le Gazhikane Muzikante" band is playing alongside the poets reading at the Poetry Café. […] Riva’s group […] managed to provide two extraordinary sets of gypsy music which had the audience clapping and tapping. In addition, they were willing to explain the origin and background of each song to the audience and why each song was chosen to suit the theme of the evening.”
[Poetry Café, London]
