Experience and Features
Amar Corda Duo presents an acoustic live performance centred on Italian singer-songwriter music, the swing of the 1950s and 1960s, bossa nova, bolero and Latin jazz vibes. The duo was formed when Tosca Zampini’s vocals met Tolga During’s guitar playing, with arrangements designed to create an elegant, dynamic sound that is perfectly suited to convivial settings.
The project is ideal for cocktail receptions, receptions, ceremonies, private concerts, venues, parties and corporate events. The core line-up is a vocal and guitar duo, but can be expanded to a trio with a double bass or a larger ensemble as required. The group has performed at hundreds of concerts in Italy and abroad and boasts a repertoire designed to complement any event with a musical presence that is distinctive yet unobtrusive.
Equipment and logistics
Equipment and assembly times
The organisation has its own sound system suitable for events with up to around 200–300 people. The standard setup requires a compact space, approximately 2 x 2 metres, a standard electrical socket and takes around 40 minutes to set up.
The basic line-up consists of female vocals and acoustic guitar with a loop station; on request, a double bass can be added, transforming the set into a trio. To finalise the booking, please provide the date, venue, times, requested musical segments, number of guests, available space, power supply, any noise restrictions and whether movement between different areas of the venue is required.

Useful information includes details on access for loading and unloading, technical parking, distance from the performance area, the presence of stairs or lifts, space for instruments and mixing desks, power supply, cover in the event of an outdoor performance, volume limits and the on-site contact person.
Other logistical requirements
The project is based in Faenza, in the province of Ravenna, and is available for work outside the local area. Timings, travel costs and logistics are to be agreed upon based on the date, distance, times and chosen set-up.
