with his ear to the east and south heart
PALERMO - Take some pictures and sounds of the masterpieces such as the Time of the Gypsies, Black Cat White Cat and Underground by Bosnian director Emir Kusturica , add a heaping tablespoon of Klezmer music, a handful of folk music Greek, Turkish, Arabic, a glass of French chanson, a few drops of flamenco, a pinch of rock, dub, reggae, jazz and a sprinkling Arch Sheep, and here that, at least in part, you will have grasped the essence of the second album "Double &!", "Zivile", in Slavic word that means strictly 'to Health. "
EAR EAST - The work is promoted on the internet with a video produced by National Geographic to Ballarò market, will be presented Dec. 16 next to "I Candelai" of Palermo. And yes, because even though Daniel Tesauro, Dario Partner, Gero pitanza, Davy Deglave, Robert and James Domenico Ferreri, aka the Double &!, A group are formally "Sicilian" (all but the French singer Davy Deglave), born six years ago in Palermo, the musical and aesthetic tastes of each one of them but found ultimate expression in what is the folk music of Eastern Europe and the Mediterranean in general. "From the beginning, it was a purely aesthetic choice similar to push music traditions, "confides Tesauro, one of the founders of the group," in a sense it's elective affinities which can not oppose. Feel the rhythm that resonates within you, but do not know why. So you begin to investigate a genre rather than another, until it becomes part of you. "
THE NEW ENTRY - And yet, it's no wonder that the name of a group as diverse and seemingly far from the Sicilian folk music, is rather typical local expression as' Double & "(mama mia!). If their music, in fact, is not explicitly Sicilian, numerous traces of North African culture, Turkish, Hebrew, French, Greek, English, Latin, which mark the skin of our people, gestures, looks, the colors of our markets, the smells, the sounds of the streets, however, represent a clear link. But not only. Just that 'matrim, "they sound in a live concert because their energetic Sicilian appear as if by magic: the interpretation of the songs, improvisations, with the understanding with the public. But "Zivile" is not only a new music collection. This album marks an important step in the history of the group: "Two components are gone, leaving a great void emotional and instrumental," Daniel continues, "and, in the search for a bassist to replace Marko Bonarius, We found an excellent substitute in the bass of our sound engineer, Roberto Ferrer, whom we also accompanied an electric guitar. " The language is different, no longer solely directed at young people, but also open to more mature counterparts. And then there are travel stories, music festivals, artistic collaborations, personal experiences, stories that each of them has written individually and then arranged together, "in great democracy."
