Umbria The loggers converse with the old / oak in the background the accordion player that accompanies moments of representation sung; it is a time of 'the Old Saw;' rite of mid-Lent of the rural world: in the pantomime carried from house to house; the old / oak is found and "knocked down" by two "sawyers"; at which point occurs by searching old husband; and all damage done to bring it back to life; an operation that succeeds perfectly; symbolizing the eternal renewal of spring. Part of the photo shoot in the survey documentation of musical anthropology carried out by Carpitella Diego (1924-1990) and Tullio Seppilli (1928) for the Accademia Santa Cecilia in Rome. Photo by Ando Gilardi (1921-2012). According to Rio; March 12; 1958
