Astoria, New York
End of year amid Spirituality for Sal Marchese.The singer will be the guest at a Benedictine monastery of Mount Etna.Back after three years from the last retreat at the hermitage of Camaldoli, in Tuscany, to relive the experience of a hermit, the Sicilian poet and singer Sal Marchese. The artist in fact, from 29 December 2009 to January 1, 2010, will be the guest of the Benedictine monks at a monastery located on the slopes of Mount Etna, Sicily. Most of the people of our time, says Marchese, care about their careers, to grow only from the professional, economic, and / or cultural; few strive to grow in spirit, in faith. But the 'man can not deny having a soul, and also the Spirit must be cultivated. Professional career, money and culture are not supported by the values of Christian faith and a deep, personal growth in the Spirit, can also lead, if living in the wrong way and / or excessive, destruction and anguish. This end of the year for me will be different from the usual "festive season" immersed in the confusion of the tables of restaurants, houses full of friends and relatives, and even in the noise of the crowded streets of cities. I live in Silence, in prayer and meditation. Away from the distractions of the world. Salvatore Marchese
during his 3 week stay in New York, has also performed at the Wine Bar Vino Divino in Astoria. You can visit www.salvatoremarchese.it for additional information.
