Live music in Capri does not live in clubs alone: in the small rooms of the historic centre it is played at conversation volume, with piano, voice and Neapolitan repertoire.
Neapolitan song as an island repertoire
The bay left Capri a repertoire that runs from Neapolitan classics to jazz readings. It is music meant to be heard up close: a few metres between the players and the tables, with no invasive amplification.
Where to hear it in the historic centre
The nights are concentrated in the rooms around the Piazzetta. Spirito di Capri, in Piazzetta Cerio, devotes a calendar of nights to music with piano, voice and acoustic instruments: the published dates are gathered on the site's Events page.
How to plan
The rooms are small and seats run out: book a table for dinner time and stay on for the night. Service runs from 11am to 2am, closed on Tuesdays.
