Argentinian twin sisters Laura et Gianna Caronni were born in a family of Swiss, Italian, Russian and Spanish origins, where the music of Opera and Tango intertwined. They studied classical music, moved to France in 1998, where they played with Argentinian musicians (Juan Cedron, Juan Carlos Cáceres...). The sisters’ music reflects all these musical influences and something more, intimate and personal, that only belongs to them.

Gianna et Laura Caronni sont deux soeurs jumelles d'origine argentine nées sous le signe du tango, ascendants candombé,  chacarera, milonga et musique classique. Leurs chansons, c’est la synthèse de tout cela, et tout autre chose à la fois, une nostalgie aux sons chauds et caressants du violoncelle et de la clarinette, et deux voix en parfaite harmonie.

Cloak of Blue is inspired by the precious stone, "Lapis Lazuli", the most prestigious pigment that a Medieval artist could use and one that came to Europe all the way from Afghanistan. The subject of the song is a Sicilian artist that I imagined to be working at the court of King Roger II of Sicily. The “turning leaf” is the gold leaf adorning his paintings or mosaics and the “souls he gathers” are the ones who are moved by his artistry.
It’s easy to forget today but in a world where only the privileged few had access to books and images, seeing the mosaics and frescos in the churches, circa eight hundred years ago, must have been an extraordinary experience. The inspiration for this song are the remarkable Byzantine mosaics in Cefalu, Sicily and the mesmerising blue of the Pantacrotor’s cloak.
