"Contaminazione 2.0" is recorded in San Galgano, near Siena (Italy), in September 2018 in an ancient 1200's abbey without a roof, a magical place, worthy location for their timeless music, totally dedicated to their album "Contaminazione" (1973) considered a masterpiece of italian progressive rock.

Il Rovescio della Medaglia was born in Rome in 1970 from an idea of guitarist Enzo Vita, then Stefano Urso on bass, Gino Campoli on drums and singer Pino Ballarini joined the band…

A new opportunity to hear the glorious virtuosity of Roberta Invernizzi comes with this Lamentationi, where the soprano is joined by Franco Pavan’s Laboratorio ’600 in an intimate and intense Passiontide score from mid seventeenth-century Siena: Alessandro Della Ciaia’s set of the Lamentations of Jeremiah. Convents throughout Siena at the time boasted nuns of considerable musical talents, both in singing and in playing instruments such as the organ, lute and theorbo, and it is undoubtedly for one such convent that the nobleman Della Ciaia wrote his music for the Holy Weeks matins services. His Lamentations are scored for a solo soprano possessed of a very wide range and capable of meeting his demanding technical effects.

Riccardo Chailly's much-anticipated recording of Mendelssohn's Italian symphony in the revised 1834 version recorded in Dolby Atmos in the glorious, golden auditorium of Teatro alla Scala. Coupled with Schubert's two Rossini-inspired overtures (in the Italian Style) and three Mozart overtures to operas premiered in Milan.
