Peter Shapiro History

The EVA labels were a group of sisterlabels made for compilations and Best-Of albums released as joint ventures between the national divisions of EMI, Virgin and Ariola. The label became active in 1984 but is now defunct in all countries. Early EVA albums were released with the logos of the three individual labels. Sometimes the label name EVA was not mentioned on those releases.

Unique in the history of Italian progressive music, New Trolls were leaders and were for a time the top band in Italy. In 1973, New Trolls split into two camps, the hard-rocking IBIS and the symphonic-oriented New Trolls Atonic System. They crossed many different permutations of line-up changes, many musical stylings… and great hits, passing through beat, pop ballads, progressive rock works, hard rock, and melodic pop followed groups like Genesis and PFM.
This event took place in august 2007 in one of the most beautiful square in Italy, Piazza Unità d'Italia in Triste and the band line up is here represented by founding members Vittorio De Scalzi and Nico Di Palo along with Andrea Maddalone and Mauro Sposito on guitars, Francesco Bellia on bass and Alfio Vitanza on drums. The supporting orchestra is the amazing orchestra San Marco directed by Stefano Cabrera…
