World, Italy, compilation
Whatever our personal definition of contemporary World Music might be, there is a grey area where it blends into popular music. What for one listener is ethnic music - a label often dictated by the language in which the song is sung - for another listener it is familiar native music, evoking home.
Casa Italia is just that, an Italian home, wherever you might hear it, wherever you call home, whenever your thoughts turn to contemporary Italy.
Casa Italia presents an up-to-date musical map of Italy, with leading artists performing music that celebrates the rich and unique palate of distinct cultures of the country's regions.
The expressive voice of Consiglia Licciardi contrasted with plaintive saxophone transports you to the Campania region and the Mediterranean while "Ape Regina" of Andrea Donati puts you at the center of a Milanese jazz club.
The journey includes an exploration of the migrant, rhythmic trails of Naples as interpreted by native artists such as the Avion Travel, Nuova Compagnia di Canto Popolare, Almamegretta and Daniele Sepe.
Fratelli Mancuso guide the listener through the lost paths of Sicily, while the avant-garde Agricantus fuse southern traditions with eastern-influenced trance sounds.
Sardinian guitarist Marino De Rosas presents a touching acoustic portrait of his native island, and Faraualla, the female vocal ensemble of Pulia, creates a polyphonic atmosphere that sounds at once both traditional and futuristic.
Italian bard Vinicio Capossela relates a rock-tinged tarantella.
The collection of contemporary Italian artists blends traditional Mediterranean song-elements with electronica. Its innovative combination of ethnic influences and modern rhythmic styles make the album a must for enthusiasts of Italian culture who are looking for new expressions in music and art.
Casa Italia is a soundtrack to excursions to Italy, whether your excursion is a glass of Chianti in your own home, pasta with friends or simply an imagined view from any room's window.
