Biography

Fausto Cannone was born in Alcamo, in the province of Trapani on March 1, 1938; he was the son of Gaspare Cannone (a literary reviewer and an anarchist who emigrated to the U.S.A.); his mother died when he was just a child, so he had an unhappy adolescence.

He began his artistic career in the '60s by playing as a guitarist and lead singer in some bands in Genoa, where he met Fabrizio De André, Luigi Tenco and other singers.

After returning to Sicily, he got a degree in canto at the Conservatorio Alessandro Scarlatti in Palermo, then he studied with maestro Eliodoro Sollima[1] (harmony and composition). He also taught musical education in grammar schools for several years.[2] In the late '70s Cannone started to dedicate on popular music and created about 700 works which included ballads, songs and poems inspired by the traditions and people of his homeland.[2]

As he did not like the music business, he published a few albums only in the last years of his life.

With Ignazio Buttitta and Rosa Balistreri

Thanks to the collaboration with the Sicilian poet Ignazio Buttitta and Rosa Balistreri, Fausto Cannone has discovered his love for his land and for the people who have fought for Sicily. He set to music 16 poems and a comedy for Buttitta who wrote about Cannone: Faustu Cannuni sona la chitarra cu li irita e la libertà cu lu cori (translation: Fausto Cannone plays the guitar with fingers and freedom with the heart.)[3]

He travelled with Rosa Balistreri all over Europe; Cannone was her guitar-man for 5 years. He participated, with her and Peppino Gagliardi, in the television program entitled Un'ora per voi introduced by Corrado.

In 2008 he published the album Diario d'amore musiche per sognare and received, together with Massimo Ranieri, the prize Pigna d'argento at Teatro Politeama in Palermo.[1]

Civil commitment in his works

The fight against violence, in favour of peace and freedom are the values which Cannone transmits through his songs; in 2017 he published the second album called In nome della legalità: a collection of the stories and heritages of men like Paolo Borsellino, Giovanni Falcone, Rocco Chinnici, Dalla Chiesa, Rosario Livatino, Ludovico Corrao, Peppino Impastato, Mauro Rostagno. The songs in this cd – said Fausto Cannone – are dedicated to all the victims of mafia who devoted their own lives to the values of legality and justice, who will continue to live in the memory of all those people believing and fighting for a just cause. A cd which is also a teaching for young people and that wants to send a message of legality, respect for rules and to fight against mafia at all levels.[4]

His songs reveal his pessimism, due to an unhappy childhood, the courage for suffer and fighting, without the acceptance of any compromises, which he inherited from his father, Gaspare.

Fausto Cannone sings about characters of different types: from Padre Pio to Giovanni Falcone, from Madre Teresa di Calcutta to Paolo Borsellino. These songs were often presented in different seminaries on Peace an Legality in various Italian cities.[1]

He used the Sicilian dialect as the language of communication; he also believed in the survival of folklore inside music because our traditions live with it and we are rooted in it.[3]

Museum of Multiethnic Musical Instruments "Fausto Cannone"

Thanks to Fausto Cannone's donation of more than 200 ethnical instruments (string and wind ones), coming from several countries in the world, which he bought in 30 years of travels, it was founded an important and unique museum in Sicily.

The museum hosts more than 20o instruments coming from Thailand to Tibet, from New Guinea al South America, from Polynesia to China, from Australia to Argentina, from South Africa to several European countries. Most of them are poor instruments, made with parts of plants and animals, but there are also valuable craft products.[5]

He wanted to dedicate the museum to his father's memory, Gaspare Cannone who was a journalist, literary critic, anarchist and antifascist.[5]
