preparated accordion (italian organetto), loops, efx
Always interested in the most varied musical forms, Alessandro D'Alessandro is considered "one of the most talented e creative Italian accordion players".
"Canzoni", the album released by Squilibri Editore (Xango Music for Benelux dist.) that will mark his debut as a soloist, stands. It is a project of exploration of the author's song, with the transposition of some classics into the language of a "prepared" accordion which, in his hands, seems to take on "the breath of an orchestra".
