Details: Italian Folksinger-Librarian Launches new CD at Culturando
On Saturday 7 March 2015 at 19:00, Vittorio Merlo, Italian folksinger and composer who has lived in Luxembourg for 20 years, is to launch his new CD entitled "C'è ancora tempo" at Culturando in Limpertsberg.
Culturando is a new place (15 avenue de la Faïencerie, L-1510 Limpertsberg) where, by crossing wines and culture, people can experience the culture of Italy while enjoying the best of its wines.
Vittorio Merlo’s CD has received the support of SACEM Luxembourg as a "cultural action" and, in part, has been successfully funded by a the crowdfunding project launched in Autumn 2014 by the Italian singer online at www.eppela.com.
"C'è ancora tempo" is an optimistic and positive CD in which the Italian artist takes a step back to look at life and say that we still have time to do a lot of things. It is important to be owner of our time and not to be passive slaves by following the style of the modern life. In the second song "Petra e il tempo", inspired by his daughter Petra, he plays the oboe in a very peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. Two songs published in 2013 in digital format only complete the CD: " Buongiorno Buonasera" is dedicated to the Mediterranean Sea (with Patrick Bessire at the accordion) and " Girasoli".
The songs of this CD are played and arranged with a very personal style by the guitarist Riccardo Zappa. The CD is in digital distribution on iTunes, Amazon, and all the international music platforms. It will be presented in Milan, Italy, on 27 March in the highly evocative location of Eataly Milano, a former theatre transformed into a fabulous supermarket (5,500 m2) with bio and high quality Italian food and where, on the first floor, in association with Sony there is the concert stage: the Palco Dello Smeraldo.
Vittorio Merlo was born in Milan in 1959. Since 1994 he has lived in Luxembourg. Vittorio combines his professional life as a librarian with the passion for song writing and singing that often leads him to present his songs in solo concerts (voice and piano), across Europe. Before this new CD he published two other CDs: Ho sognato Bruno Vespa (2005) and Aicha.it (2007).
