Editor's Note
Welcome to Blogfoolk # 408. Our cover story is “Saudagorìa”, the second release by Sara Romano, produced by Marco Corrao and Michele Gazich. It is an intimate and refined work, in which the Sicilian singer-songwriter has put to work the intense artistic journey she has made since her 2016 debut “Ciricò”, performing in Italy and abroad and lining up important awards and collaborations. Our interview to the artist from Palermo to retrace her musical history and give an insight into her new work.. The world music page offers, first of all, our weekly recommended disc, which is “Placeless”, where Kronos Quartet meets the Iranian singers Mahsa & Marjan Vahdat. Still in the Middle East for Madar Ensemble’s “Acamar”. The we move to Istanbul for “Mânidar Boşluk / The Conspicuous Abyss”, recorded by Fulya Özlem & Akustik Kabare. In the section Memory, we host the Paolo Mercurio’s contribution entitled “Luigi di Gianni, maestro di espressività cinematografica in promozione della cultura popolare”, a writing in memory of the documentarist who has just passed away. A lovely book with CD is “L’Orso 'Nnammurato”, born from the the lucky artistic encounter between Alessio Sollo and Gnut. On the jazz side, we propose Mauro Ottolini’s “Sea Shell Musica per Conchiglie”, while in Contemporary Music page, we review the anthology “Electronic Signals From Italy”. What’s more here you have the chronicle of the concert that Arturo Stalteri gave in Rome on May 12th. Finally, Valerio Corzani’s snapshot featuring Nathy Peluso.
We salute Paolo Ciarchi, who has just passed away, aged 76. Guitarist, actor and author, a former collaborator of Dario Fo, Enzo Jannacci and Nuovo Canzoniere Italiano.
