CD “La famiglia canterina” of Anita Camarella and Davide Facchini
Winner of LadyLake Music Indie Awards Best Album 2013 U.S.A.
DECEMBER 9th, 2013 – LadyLake Music:
This is such a jewel of an album, unlike anything I’ve come across.
This album is just spectacular from start to finish.
Anita has an amazing command of her precise voice, with an uncanny ability to fly from a harmonic gem like ‘Tornerai’ into a swinging tune like ‘In the Mood’ and finally slide into a dreamy version of ‘Volare’.
A must buy!
