Twenty editions consumed, this year the twenty-first, with more than 100 artistic proposals discovered and promoted, more than 500 artists brought to the stage to tell a repertoire of a thousand colors, of great impact on the public, otherwise little valued. The Alberto Cesa Prize, dedicated to the great Turinese musician among the leading interpreters of folk revival, is certainly unique in the panorama of National Competitions dedicated to music. Its formula is original, involving a triple passage: a first selection entrusted to a jury made up of industry professionals, journalists and musicians, which is followed by six live selections scattered along the Boot. Confirmed this year are Arezzo, Loano, Cervasca, Udine, Rome and Verona. The six groups that emerged from the territorial semifinals will land in July 2025 on the Folkest stage in San Daniele for the finals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Very important: this year, as last year, the finalist groups will be asked to set to music, sing and arrange a text in the Friulian language by the poet Federico Tavan from Andreis (PN), an artistically outstanding figure, the highest voice of Friulian literature in the second half of the 20th century after Pier Paolo Pasolini. This phase of the Prize will be held in close collaboration with Morganti Editori, the publishing house that manages the rights to this great poet. The first runners-up will receive the Nuovo Imaie Prize and will be invited to perform at Folkest 2026 and Ethnos 2026. While the first runners-up will be invited to two of Folkest&#8217;s evenings on the territory 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"420\" src=\"https:\/\/www.folkest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Alberto-Cesa-2-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34272 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.folkest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Alberto-Cesa-2-1.png 750w, https:\/\/www.folkest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Alberto-Cesa-2-1-300x168.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>Alberto Cesa (1947-2010), singer, guitarist, guirondist and founder in 1974 of the Cantovivo label, was among the leading interpreters of folk revival.
