Pagine Vere was born from the artistic collaboration between pianist and composer Giovanni Ceccarelli and singer and lyricist Michela Lombardi. The two artists have been working together for years, with the aim of creating a repertoire of original music. Michela Lombardi is an accomplished performer of rare musical sensitivity, with illustrious collaborations as singer and songwriter, such as those with Phil Woods and Burt Bacharach. Giovanni Ceccarelli has released thirteen albums under his own name and has been nominated for the Latin Grammy Awards. While recording the album “Animantiga”, Giovanni meets and collaborates for the first time with guitarist Luca Falomi, an artist who brings into this project his very fine and delicate musicianship. Pagine Vere‘s repertoire also includes lyrics by Max De Tomassi, Stéphane Casalta, André Carvalho and Ciara Arnette. The group’s music features lyrics in Italian, English, French, Portuguese and Corsican.The three musicians invited some special guest artists to join them in the recording of this album: Ferruccio Spinetti and Petra Magoni from duo Musica Nuda, Brazilian multi-instrumentalist and producer Dadi, Corsican singer-songwriter Stéphane Casalta.
