Alice Ricciardi & Pietro Lussu - Catch A Falling Star (2019)

In their first duo album “CATCH A FALLING STAR”, released on September 20 2019 for the newborn Gibigiana Records founded by the artists themselves, besides original music, singer Alice Ricciardi and pianist Pietro Lussu pick through their favorites from various musical sources: the majesty of the American Songbook, Pop Music from the 50s and 60s (Perry Como, The Beach Boys), Contemporary Music. In a very eclectic musical program the “fil rouge” is embodied by the unique sound and cool approach of the duo. Alice delivers her knowledge of jazz vocal culture, melodic imagination, subtle interpretation of lyrics through the sound that brings her close to the listener. Pietro is a sensitive and challenging partner, combining imagination with elegance, irony, tradition and unexpected turns. The duo embraces the music with love, curiosity, intimacy, and spontaneity. The distinctive and dynamic interplay, as well as the sense of suspension, allusion, are all expressions that the listener completes in a myriad of personal interpretations.
