Avoid this album but give some attention to the previous ones, not all his works are good for the waste as this. The first one is a beautiful composition that has a cello creating a cute atmosphere, accompanied by Sorrenti's voice and his acoustic guitar. Alan Sorrenti-Aria Italian folk prog cd.

Alan Sorrenti
Other sites in the MAC network: I remember when I heard the title track daj the first time from the TV. Comprised by a hefty dosage of acoustic guitars with a medieval flavour - almost resembling the old jester with his lute - jumping around in sheer exuberance and carelessness, Aria is heavily rooted in the Italian folk music tradition.
He's experimental, but not a reasercher like the other big voice of the Italian 70s, Demetrio Stratos was. This is a dilemma for me as i find the album quite the brilliant experience but am a little put off by the blatant Hammilisms expressed in every musical cadence throughout the album despite the lyrics being totally penned in the Italian language.
After that he has been almost completely forgotten.
The voice of Sorrenti is soft initially but soon, when the music becomes more frantic, it turns and becomes rougher, and more intense and dramatic tones emerge suddendly, in a style very close to Peter Hammill. Acoustic moments alternated instrumental crescendo with typically Mediterranean percussion style and great demonstrations of virtuosity of Jean Luc Ponty on the violin.

The first one is a beautiful composition that has a cello creating a cute atmosphere, accompanied by Sorrenti's voice and his acoustic guitar. There are also plenty of Hammond organs and mellotrons to create a thick lysergic atmosphere that enriches all the twists and turns of the song structure. But as so often appears, there's a near bottomless pit of yet to be discovered musical gems, and unlike Alice, who landed at a certain moment, I'm still falling and still discovering.
Well ok, one hint then; is it weird that - while the piano play on La Mia Mente is so intense - you seriously consider how to get INTO the left loudspeaker? Styles of music melt and congeal together. Connect to Spotify Dismiss. The second track, Vorrei Incontrarti is a delicate acoustic ballad, much more simple and melodic, very relaxing and beautiful. Recently he has released a 5 CD boxset entitled "The Prog Years", but I don't think he had enough prog material to fill 5 CDs unless there's something previously unreleased.
Words are gently warbled, caressed, cosseted, vibrated and violently expunged. Side B is a completely different story.

It's a side long track which despite the unusual vocal experiments is balanced between experimental instrumental parts with a chamber rock flavor, close to RIO, and melodic parts on which Alan sings with his high pitched voice respecting the rule of metrics a bit more, on a quite good melody, even if he sometimes exceeds in taking and holding dissonant high pitched notes.
Styles Genres All artists All albums. Studio Album, 1. Overall i'd have to say that i dig this album more than feel any sense of animosity.
Alan Sorrenti with David Jackson ? A weak attempt to be mimic of the most successful pop bands of the time and an early anticipation of the poorness that the 80s would bring to the world.
ALAN SORRENTI discography and reviews
The album was also released abroad, but to little success. This is not actually what I would call music, this is a completely dissonant and cacophonous collection of sparse sounds, full of Sorrenti's wordless vocals and cries along with dominating percussion and acoustic guitars, while the few singing parts have a cosmic theatrical approach with floating synths, pianos and flutes, which add a sporadic orientation to the composition, that as a whole is a rather painful experience.
And can I explain why? View full artist profile. From The Album Play album.
