Camilla Battaglia: EMIT: Rotator Tenet

Read "EMIT: Rotator Tenet" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi


Definire Camilla Battaglia una cantante jazz è riduttivo. Certamente l'espressione vocale è il suo tratto saliente ma solo marginalmente si lega al canto jazz tradizionale, perché trova nel panorama contemporaneo gli elementi per costruire la propria identità. Tra le vocalist con cui troviamo affinità possiamo citare Norma Winstone e, per qualche aspetto, Becca ...

All that is broken can be put back together, much of what's whole isn't without interstitial breaks, and the human experience is built around the fluid bonds between the two representative emotional extremes connected ...
