LINE UP AND GUESTS :
 

Riccardo Prencipe: Composer. He plays all classic guitar lines; in this album he also plays the medieval lute. Riccardo took classical guitar degree at Naples’ conservatoire San Pietro a Majella. Since he was young, he felt soon the importance of composing music, lyrics and vocal lines, not only to execute classical music. Enriched by many live experiences in Italy and Netherlands (recently at Summer Darkness festival, together with bands like Moonspell and Bauhaus), he performed many concerts with ensembles as: QNTAL, Ataraxia, Kirlian Camera, and Spiritual Front.

In this new album he increases the number of the guests, coming from ensembles of different kind. They give a precious touch to the whole production:
Caterina Pontrandolfo: singer-actress also present in the album “Respiri”. Her great voice performs three wondeful songs of this new chapter. She works on a traditional musical project and also worked in the album "Tribù italiche - Basilicata" (WMM).

Floriana Cangiano: wonderful ethereal voice who interpretates a song dedicated to the medieval town of Casertavecchia. She is the solo voice of Carlo Faiello’s band. Floriana also works with her band named Discanto ensamble.

Simone Salvatori:
the singer-guitarist from Spiritual Front, very well known band in the neofolk scene that performed concert throughout Europe.

Sergio Panarella: Ashram’s voice. His style is so melancholic and melodic, the fusion with Riccardo’s guitar gives a very intimate result.

Claudia Florio: soprano voice of Lupercalia’s second album (Florilegium). She works now with Roberto Marino on a new project named Realgar. After several years, Riccardo wrote a new song for her voice, inspired by the ancient town of Cuma.

Catarina Raposo: singer of the band Dwelling, She sings melodies really close to the Portuguese Fado, her style is very passionate and she was present in the first album “Respiri” as well.

Alfredo Notarloberti: the great Argine’s and Ashram’s violinist. He gives a wonderful value to the violin lines, with his great touch, warm sound and considerable music-intelligence.

Luigi Rubino: Ashram’s pianist. He co-wrote, with Riccardo, the melancholic song “Before Utrecht”, inspired by that beautiful city. He also plays keyboards in the other tracks.

Eugenio Catone: talented classical pianist. He interpretates the virtuous song “La pioggia sui tasti”.

Francesco Paolo Manna: talented percussionist. He gives new colours to Riccardo’s music, by arranging wonderful rythms and by giving an ethnic touch originated by his beautiful fantasy.

Francesco Perreca: talented clarinettist. He already worked for folk popular music (with bands like Spaccanapoli).

Alessio Sica: Argine’s drummers. He plays drums in two tracks; the fusion of drums together with percussions gives a powerful touch to our music.
