Roberta Gambarini is one of the finest jazz singers in the world, perhaps the finest interpreter of “scat” since Ella Fitzgerald. She headlines the major jazz festivals the world over and is a “rising star” in reader’s polls in Downbeat and Jazz Times.
Andrea Donati is a musician, composer and arranger, highly rated by maestro Ennio Morricone. He has also produced albums by the Nuttree Quartet,
Marco Pereira, Tony Scott and the Los Angeles Jazz Ensemble among others.
These 2 CDs were recorded in Italy in the late nineties and re-mixed and re-mastered in 2009. They are Roberta’s and Andrea’s tribute to Italy. Absolutely noteworthy is Roberta’s use of her voice as an “instrument”, creating a tone poem of timeless beauty.
