Enzo Favata Jana Project - Islà (1995)

JANA PROJECT, experience started in 1988, is the closest project to the traditional and experimental music that FAVATA has. A project based an the hypothesis of an imaginary traditional music of our times.
ISLA’ is the second record production of JANA PROJECT. In the present case particularly centred around an acoustic approach to the music and a mix of styles apparently far one form the other. The title is already an imaginary place. ISLA’ is a word that do not exist but that reminds both to isola (Island) and Islam.
For this production FAVATA is working with some virtuoso musicians and their own instrument/s. Marcello Peghin, co-writer of most of the music, guitar, mainly on the 10 strings version; Federico Sanesi, Oriental and Western percussion; Riccardo Tesi very known accordion player, one of the best in Europe; on some titles Elena Ledda, one of the best vocalists in Sardinia today, adds the group.
