Tina Allori was an Italian singer who debuted on the radio in the forties launching reasons like "Night and Day" "still believe", "could live life", during the war she joined the orchestra led by Arturo Strappini, in regular programs of the RAI (national television), broadcasting a weekly basis, until 1956, the end of the 60 recorded in Moscow "Arrivederci Roma", selling 5 million copies in the USSR. She then sets out for a few years in the USA, with their husband, garnering awards at numerous international festivals. His last performance takes place in Sweden 1967. Tina died in 1989, buried in the small cemetery of Amatrice, where he still lies today.

Looking at one of the most successful songs (I could live life again) is structured research and action that I'm going to do. The project will be implemented in a quarry in Larvik, Norway, this area of the country is particularly rich in fields where we extract the Larvikite, volcanic stone that takes its name from the city, and, characterized by a particular date iridescence by the presence of microcrystals, it is very appreciated throughout the world. This stone is the important point of the research, since it is also the tombstone of Tina Allori. Inside the quarry will place a sound system consisting of speakers, an amplifier and a computer, the audio system will be connected to an electric generator, located several meters away, the song (I could live life again) will be sent to 'interior of the quarry, and will be recorded sound and video using different cameras that will resume the action.
