RAI 3 Live broadcast
Intense interest in Barga for the arrival of the RAI 3 radio troupe. A live broadcast on national radio took place over most of the afternoon with interviews with The Mayor - Umberto Sereni, the Scottish painter - John Bellany, Bruna Cordati, Luca Galleotti, Nick Hunt and even Keane from barganews. Translating services were offered by Michele Biagi.

The troupe also recorded inside the Teatro dei Differenti, a selection of pieces played by the Accademia per Musica featuring Cristoph Timpe, Andra Fossà, Francesco Romano and Anna Fontana. The only negative note in the whole day was the condition of the blue RAI "Tournee" van which suffered "cuts and abrasions" on entering and leaving the narrow streets of Barga Vecchia.
