NASCITA DELLA SFERA
1978, ITALY- EURO 19.00
Label: AMS
ALBUM REVIEW
Nascita della Sfera was a group of session musicians assembled by composer and keyboardist Carlo Barbiera who dedicated the whole album to the life and works of sculptor Luciano Ceschia (1926-1991) as both had same origins in the north-east of Italy. It’s an original example of experimental electro-acoustic progressive style, mainly based on synth effects and acoustic guitars and often reminding some of Battiato's early works. Despite the presence of five singers, the vocal parts are short, spoken rather than sung. Nineteen tracks are listed on the credits, but these are connected to form two long suites. An interesting album to all the adventurous listeners in search of something different. Ref. Battiato, Cacciapaglia, Stelle di Mario Schifano.
