Made at Magister Studio, Preganziol, Treviso Italy, on March, 18,19 - 2006. VLHD HIGH DEFINTION MASTERING

The extraordinary soul voice of Paola Casula is at the service of the new minimal arrangements by Marco Strano, a roundup of 15 tracks divided between famous standards and original songs of his composition (My Funny Valentine, Another Day, Both Sides Now, The way we were, etc. and his Nuvole di Carta, Tears, Non più noi, Tra i ricordi), and gives us a memorable record, in which a warm and round voice, accompanied by the piano of Alessandro Mozzi, saxophones and flutes of Strano, from the rich and varied percussions of Paolo Vidaich and the mighty bass of the legendary bassist of the US Band, Gas The Bass, is expressed with an unprecedented richness and groove guaranteed even by an entirely analog shot, performed live live-in-studio direct-to-two-tracks in the large space of Room A of Studio Magister of Preganziol.
