«Respiri»
is the new folk-ethereal-ethnic album from the guitarist-composer
Riccardo Prencipe, already mind of the Lupercalia
project.
Corde Oblique is the name that Riccardo gave
to the equipe of sound artists' that collaborate
to this new album.
A precious musical chapter, a resonant journey that
takes us from little rainy harbours to distant valleys.
From the ancient town of Assisi to the beauty of Paris,
from the myth of Miseno to the ancient Caserta's splendours.
Those who love music that gives visions can't miss this
release. Over 60 minutes that flow with the desire of
listening to it again.
Fundamental base of music: fine arts from which emerges
each note.
Riccardo Prencipe: composer, ensemble's mind, plays
all classic guitar's lines, percussions, synths, working
on the arrangements and lyrics. Experienced Lupercalia's
composer-guitarist, with two album released that have
had lots of excellent reviews throughout Europe.
