# Amanda Pascali with Addison Freeman: Mamma Mia Dammi Cento Lire

Houston-based singer and guitarist Amanda Pascali, with mandolinist and harmony vocalist Addison Freeman, performing the song “Mamma Mia Dammi Cento Lire,” from a field recording of Maria Bergamashchi and Maria Patritti, recorded by Alan Lomax in Gurro, Piemonte, Italy, in 1954. From the Alan Lomax collection (AFC 2004/004). This field recording was published on the Rounder Records Alan Lomax Collection series Italian Treasury: Piemonte and Valle D’Aosta. The American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress challenged musical artists to interpret material from its unparalleled archive of ethnographic recordings of traditional folk music. Artists were asked to put their own spin on these archival treasures, and to perform them at a special showcase during the Folk Alliance International conference in Montreal, Canada, in 2025. The showcase was recorded for this webcast.
