The Piazzale Pilotta is a large green space bounded by the Palazzo, shops, arcades and the Teatro Reggio (looking the way an Italian opera house should unlike the Fascist pile in Rome.) Some intriguing modern art pieces share the space with monuments to Verdi and the Resistance Fighters of the Risorgimento. Its a very communal spot with buskers (the American Aboriginal musicians drew a large if slightly bemused crowd more use to Peruvian flute players,)street merchants, strollers, shoppers and loiterers - very much the centre of town.(photos taken) 27 ottobre - San Fiorenzo e 28 ottobre - SS Simone e Guida

OK, what's up with the native americans? Because they do indeed appear to be precisely that...
I know very strange isn't it? I was really taken aback - they were performing very modern takes on chants and traditional music. The spectators were both intriqued and perplexed. And that may not have worked in their favour as the donations were not exactly flooding in.
