The album, entitled "E il vento ti ascolterà", was born from the productive collaboration between the pianist Danilo Rea and the Orchestra Filarmonica della Calabria conducted by Filippo. Arlia. A musical experience that embodies the perfect fusion of different musical genres: on the one hand the pianism of Rea, the dreamy aura where reminiscences of immortal pop songs, imbued with jazz nuances, rise to the lyric; on the other hand all the sweetness and intensity of a classical orchestra, which can emphasize every single note.

It is largely due to Astor Piazzolla that the bandoneon has become inextricably linked to the languid, sensual art of the tango. His renewal of its traditions – the so-called Nuevo tango – is exemplified by Aconcagua, a concerto for bandoneon, string orchestra and timpani of vivid imagination and rapid changes of mood that embodies the milonga, the improvised song of the Argentine. The six accompanying pieces are among Piazzolla’s most famous and evocative – works of poignant melody, profound melancholy and complex, uplifting beauty.

From Arturo Toscanini and Sir John Barbirolli to Riccardo Muti and Antonio Pappano in our own time, Italian-heritage performers have often brought special qualities of sympathy and understanding to Edward Elgar’s (1857-1934) music. Now comes a new recording made in the ‘boot’ of southern Italy, lending Mediterranean warmth and passion to a trio of Elgarian masterpieces.
