Live Jazz in the streets of Barga Vecchia
   

 It could have been termed "the battle of the Saxes"

On one side, the massed ranks of Saxophonia. 12 sax, good and strong under the firm leadership of General "Jack the Lad" Rizzardi, but on this occasion, outflanked and with their backs up against the wall.

On the other, the mobile troops of the musical hit squad, "Banda alla Ciance"

The encounter lasted but for a few brief tense seconds and then something in the nerve of the normally ice-cool "Ciances" snapped and they hurried left the scene of the battle and move in on to more fertile ground in the Piazza Garibaldi.
