	YE SHANGHAI Concert, Live Cinema, Film, Installation Ye Shanghai is a music-visual performance by Roberto Paci Dalò commissioned by Massimo Torrigiani at SH Contemporary 2012 and produced by Davide Quadrio and Francesca Girelli (Arthub Asia). The project deals with several aspects of the Shanghainese life before 1949. At the core of this work is the story of the Shanghai Ghetto an area of approximately one square mile located in the Hongkou District of Japanese-occupied Shanghai. It housed about 23,000 Jewish refugees relocated by the Japanese-issued Proclamation Concerning Restriction of Residence and Business of Stateless Refugees, after they fled from the German-occupied Europe before and during World War II.

	VERTIGO Music Electro-acustica / Imaginary Folklore Solo concert "I'm alone on stage, accompanied by a bass clarinet, clarinet and some electronic. This project is different from the usual things. Here I am before worlds, different times and places simultaneously present in my imagination. This concert is public and intimate at the same time mingling sampling, electronica, vintage sounds and talking about travel, emigration, new worlds discovered in the old one. Where sound is more important the genres." [...]
	ROBERT LIPPOK / ROBERTO PACI DALÒ GHOSTS AND PHANTOMS Music Robert Lippok / electronics Roberto Paci Dalò / electronics, bass clarinet A Giardini Pensili and Marsèll Project Ghosts & Phantoms is a collaboration between the icon of the electronic music scene Robert Lippok (To Rococo Rot, Raster Noton) and Roberto Paci Dalò (Edel, 21st Century, Concrete Japan). Ghosts & Phantoms is a very special concert where for the first time the two artists gather on stage together. Electronic and acoustic instruments where the center of the discourse is a compelling pulse. A warm sound that brings together melody, experimental techno, beat, sampling, noise, radio frequencies, glitch, post rock, vocals, funky grooves. All of these materials contribute to the creation of an innovative and engaging premiere in Rimini. Read more

	NEUMA Music & Acoustical Architecture. Solo concert Based on Gregorian chant, this solo project for bass clarinet and clarinet is based on explorations of Romanic architecture (churches, abbeys, monasteries, chapels, a.o.) where are performed solo concerts strictly working on the acoustic of the place.This means using the natural reverbs – often very long – of the space and no P.A. systems at all. The performance involves extended techniques and multisounds. The shape of the concert depends on the location. Sometimes are regular scheduled evening concerts, but on the other hand the project also deals with unannnounced performances with or without public at unusual times as well. First performance has been presented at the Abbazia di Sitria at the border between Marche and Umbria regions in Central Italy on January 5, 2014.

	LUFTKRIEG Music-theatre, ExhibitionR A staged work & exhibition after texts W.G. Sebald and Heiner Müller. The main reference for the project is the book Luftkrieg und Literatur (On the Natural History of Destruction) by W. G. Sebald. The author completed this book before his untimely death in December 2001. It is a harrowing study of the devastation of German cities by Allied bombardment in World War II, and an examination of the silence in German literature and culture about this unprecedented trauma. Paci Dalò's investigation throughout war time, Fascism, Nazism, and Jewish culture across the 30s and 40s, is documented in previous works such as Italia anno zero (Budapest, Vienna, Strasbourg, Huddersfield, Berlin 2004), Schwarzes Licht (Berlin 2004), Greuelmärchen (Berlin 2006), De bello Gallico (Rimini 2011), Ye Shanghai (Shanghai 2012).
