Land where land ends

"Music from southern Italy. Music beyond Pillars of Hercules. Music of "land where land ends" ("Terra dove finisce la terra"). Poets sing sometime staying awake, they are a pray to frenetic rages. Splendid dialogues among pianos of war left at Lubecca ("I pianoforti di Lubecca"). Universal lonelinesses, old songs maybe played with handle ("canzoni come quelle di una volta, forse suonate a manovella"). Tom Waits and Paolo Conte generated a dream: Vinicio Capossela. Lyrics remain engraved in my heart and melodies in my mind. Don't miss it!"
