APPETITE COMES WHILE SINGING – DESCRIPTION

Food has always been linked to the tradition of every person, a bit like poetry which, through epics, tells us about our ancestors. Each culture asserts itself through its language, culinary traditions, and literature. Our students recognize through songs a lifestyle and the reflection of their emotions.

We thought that each student delves into a poem from their homeland (not only Italy, since our school is multi-ethnic) and associates it with a song and a typical dish; we would like to exchange our experiences with other students.
