Rita Pacilio: Infedele

Come poetessa ha pubblicato alcune raccolte trovando positivi riscontri in premi letterari e presso i media nazionali.

Read "Adagio" reviewed by Jerry D'Souza

Claudio Fasoli has had a long and varied career as a jazz saxophonist. In the early seventies he was part of an electric jazz group called Perigeo. The next decade saw a shift into acoustic jazz. But Fasoli was not static in his involvement.
