Any great city is unimaginable without its music. After all, think of how many city-dedicated movies are inseparable from their iconic soundtracks? The opening glissando of “Rhapsody in Blue” that rise over the skyline in “Manhattan,” Nino Rota’s lilting melodies of the Vie Veneto in “La Dolce Vita” and the wistful zither of post-war Vienna in “The Third Man” each become part of our urban imaginations. A movie that really tries to capture a city would flounder without its unique sound and rhythm. Even Woody Allen still seems to get it and has attached fantastic soundtracks to his recent European films, using current local talent for “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” and Le Jazz Hot of the 1920s for “Midnight in Paris.”

Yet all of these films still seem a bit far from the richest and most indulgent urban films, the city symphonies of the 1920s. The Allen flicks and even “Treme,” the lushly musical and panoramic HBO series, are mostly conventional in their fictional narratives. John Turturro is working towards an avant-garde documentary-ish style with his new film “Passione,” which has much more in common with “Berlin: Symphony of a Metropolis” than “Manhattan.” The beautifully gripping performances in his film, some 25 songs, depict the city of Naples with the kind of artistic sensibility that has been missing from many recent urban-inspired cinematic odes. Somehow Turturro manages to touch on so much of Neapolitan art and history that you feel transported, if not to the real Spaccanapoli, than to a cultural essence of the city that seems to exist elsewhere.
