Capossela: Canzoni della cupa

Capossela, Vinicio

AC 169

Vinicio Capossela is an artist as elusive as he is prolific. Very inspired by American literature, from John Fante to the beat generation, by the incandescent swing of Louis Prima or even by the exuberances of Renato Carosone in Italy, he composes for the theater, publishes books and of course delights us each his albums. On stage, he is capable of anything. It is a stage animal, sometimes rock, sometimes faithful to popular Mediterranean traditions. We thus discover a unique artist, with a very colorful musical language, whose shows are inevitably very theatrical, wonderfully constructed around themes that are always very precise. In his latest album, "Canzoni della Cupa", the songs are inspired by a folk, country and mythological world, which he tried to portray based on the preexisting work of popular musicians, on the rich heritage of rural traditions. , and on epic community sagas. “In the midst of a crisis, the music of this Italian is a ray of hope, dreams and recovery. "Les Inrockuptibles" Vinicio Capossela is a rare animal, at home in Italy, everyone knows it. In France, we have not yet fully measured the scale and resources of the beast.
