Square | 'Ntunnu by Mario Romeo
Young Sicilian accordion virtuoso Mario Romeo presents his debut solo album - "Square / 'Ntunnu" - a collection featuring first-ever recordings of works by Sicilian composers. This release charts a journey through four distinct sonic worlds: from the displaced polyphony of 20th-century avantgarde Maestro Aldo Clementi and Joe Schittino's surreal, 'satiesque' humour, to Marina Leonardi's geometric soundscapes and Giovanni Di Giandomenico's electroacoustic switch from the human perception of time, to the time as experienced by the vegetal world. A compelling statement that showcases the accordion's vast potential through a lens of unique Mediterranean voices.
