FELONA E SORONA

More than 30 years ago "Le Orme" made me discover "progressive world", and this album is, in my opinion, their higher artistic point. Felona e Sorona is comparable to the best works of ELP, to which Le Orme evidently inspired them: they didn't have the technique of Emerson & C., but probably greater compositional imagination, and capacity, especially by Aldo Tagliapietra, to create beautiful and original melodies. This is one of the first Italian concept album: the story of two complementary and parallel worlds, told through dreamy and ethereal music, full of exciting keyboard sounds and unforgettable melodies. Important is the contribution to piano and production of master Reverberi, which has helped to pack one of the best works of Italian music scene.
