On stage there was a Proel Axiom + Powersoft System chosen by Alessandro Fava's Music Service of Livorno.
"The original version of this musical showed on Broadway for 12 straight years," sound designer Giuseppe Porcelli reports. "Those who know it are aware that its technical features make it absolutely unique. The plot's dynamics require the right mix between a band composed of a drum set, a bass guitar, two electric guitars, one acoustic guitar, a pad, a keyboard and a piano and 18 performers wearing either cardioid or omnidirectional DPA microphones.
"Love songs, acted scenes and veritable rock tunes alternate continuously and require for the audio system to adapt perfectly and homogeneously to the musical's varying dynamics. Proel's Axiom System's performance proved to be excellent even indoors, in its stacked configuration."
