The show “La notte della Taranta 2015” reached its 18th edition. Aimed at recovering the roots of the traditional Salento dance, it has never been so rock.

In 200 thousand participants (a record...), under the imposing Melpignano stage, danced wildly under the notes of the energetic Orchestra of La Notte della Taranta - composed of 22 elements and by the Ballet company directed by Roberto Castlello. Special guests like Luciano Ligabue with the famous Nigerian drummer Tony Allen and two well-known Anglo-Saxon  musicians  as Phil Manzanera and Paul Simonon. Among the guests also Erri De Luca.

A show that leaves little to the imagination, in which the lighting line-up, edited by ROOSTER, exclusively used PROLIGHTS. On the stage were included: 37x15W OSRAM LED RGBW/FC led-washer DIAMOND37 and 19x10W RGBW/FC led-washer REFLEX; 5R 189W beam UNICO; 16R 330W spot LUXOR; 3kW strobo EXPLO3000D; 4x100W LED COB 3200K° blinder-led SUNRISE;  12x8W, RGBW/FC bar-led pixel-map LUMIPIX12Q.

"The" Taranta big concert ", as they like to call it, it's a real burst of energy in music" - says Emilio Lombardi from ROOSTER - "This year more than ever, the required set pointed to a strong dynamic impact lighting show. A goal that we were able to accomplish thanks to PROLIGHTS, with great satisfaction of the audience, production, and even to our crew! “
