Gianluca Campagnolo & Francesco Scrofani Cancellieri - Influencias: Music for Clarinet and Piano (2017)

Music has the natural power of leading the listener through time and space. It is a real “tour “what is offered by the traces of this recording: from the warmth of the sunniest Europe (Italy and Spain) to the varied American continent swept from the north to the south. The intensity of the “Romanza” composed by the Italian Nunzio Ortolano (1967) shows the inexhaustible Mediterranean lyricism. The Romanza that is dedicated to the clarinetist Calogero Palermo sets to music a theme that in its simplicity shakes the deepest heartstrings of everyone. The Spanish saxophonist Pedro Iturralde (1929) has significantly expanded the repertoire for his own instrument by creating some pieces of music executable with the clarinet too. Memorias is a sound transposition of a trip in some fascinating places such as Lisbon, Casablanca and Algiers.
