“Morone has one of the most identifiable sounds of anyone playing fingerstyle guitar today.”

“A Selection of the best compositions of Franco recorded in the studio again. One of the best solo guitar albums of 2012!”
CD Baby – USA
“Franco Morone captures the listener in a wide variety of styles and excels in creating fantastic rich moods in his modern approach to fingerstyle guitar.”
Henk te Veldhuis – Bridge Guitar – NL
“Franco Morone reread every single song through his peculiar style and his sparkling guitar technique, while the voice of Raffaella Luna, whose versatile and elegant singing opens to popular culture with great generosity, embellishes every song. Listening is thus a flight through the history of the Italian musical tradition. The life of his compositions continues even beyond, that is, on stage and during his very popular workshops, in a continuous process of growth. Being a master, a guitar virtuoso does not mean having reached the end of a path, but rather the mastery allows Morone to continue his process of improvement both in technique, increasingly refined, and in creativity, in some episodes truly surprising. Unlike many of his colleagues in virtuosity, Morone’s instruments have the rare merit of involving even the “profane” listener, who can only be enchanted in front of small pearls like Followers of Dulcamara or Breath of Old Forest, in addition to the songs already mentioned. In short, to be able to involve even those who are not familiar with the guitarist technique of fingerstyle is absolutely amazing, and Franco Morone with Back To My Best has managed to do it great”

“Franco has re-performed his historical songs enriched and embellished by a long road travelled and much run-in on stages all over the world, reconfirming himself an essential reference of fingerstyle.”
