BLUVIOLA

the new album by CECILIA AMICI

Singer, songwriter, musician and vocal coach, she has worked with many artists both in studio and live sessions. She has done hundreds of concerts in Italy and Europe with bands, orchestras and vocal ensembles. She experienced as band leader in local bands as Aion and ESP, since 2003 she is the singer of Hàndala, a historical Italian-Palestinian group, with whom she recorded 3 albums, singing in three languages (Italian, English, Arabic).

"BLUVIOLA speaks of my passions, from spirituality to ufology, and love in all its forms. This album includes some of my most significant composition, never published so far, along with new songs written for this album.
From the musical point of view we have tried to combine my dark / new wave attitude with more modern sounds, with both vocal and musical research.
The album also includes a special version of "Jòga" by Bjork, that I arranged for choir, recorded with the two choirs I conduct, the Vocal Ensemble of Campagnano di Roma and the Vocal Modern workshop of the Popular School of Music Donna Olimpia, gathered for this release. "
