Negative Positive
Title: Melancholy from Italy
Review: Ornella emerged in the music/ international scene in the magical decade of the sixties, the decade that Europe produced the best female singers, like Mina, Milva,Nana Mouskouri,Patty Pravo etc. She is the perfect product of her generation, and I am sure that if she was a given a chance to start all over again, she would sing the same songs.Her voice is melancholic, rich in subcontext, full of experience. In this particular album, recorded in 1986, she collaborated with some of the best musicians in the easy listening/jazz field, like George Benson, Herbie Hankock, Steve Gadd, Gil Evans, Michael Brecker, Ron Carter, in order to record the old standards that her generation created, like Il mondo,poesia,ancora,aria,canzone per te, e penso a te,la voce del silenzio etc. She created an atmosphere of deep,bittersweet melancholy, and all that you want to do is switch off the lights, take a big glass of drink and listen.
