Carlo De Nonno – Chitarra Acustica – I
“A crystalline guitar accompanies the beautiful and precise voice of Raffaella Luna, who interprets these ballads with a great personality … really a wonderful record.”
Alessandro Nobis – Folkbulletin – I
“A fascinating journey to the re-discovery of our roots music.”
Massimiliano Spada – Jam – I
“.. splendid the voice of Raffaella Luna. The technical perfection of a guitar that does not compromise with singing but creates a second voice enhancing the first. A really interesting album, a philological study on Italian music really traditional and well played. An excellent guitar record for those who love the ‘acoustic’ of Maestro Franco Morone.”
Francesco Coniglio – Chitarre – I
“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 Italian musical tradition.”
