Description

1. Guarda che bel serèn (rumanele – Ferrara)

2. El me murus el stà de là del Sère (sequenza di villotte – Cremona)

These two Italian songs from Northern Italy celebrate the character of the people from this area of the world – expressed through language and music full of poetic imagery, a sly sense of humor, and a joyful sensuality. I hope that my creative deviations from the originals only enhance those qualities.
