@andonion: Thanks so much! It´s easy to sing with so great music, Stéph is really excellent! We appreciate your words.  :-)

I also collaborated with Steph a couple of times, but this tracks has such deep roots in 60s-70s music, so it's just fantastic

Sad Christmas  🌲

May peace be your vision !

" Possa la pace essere la tua visione " 🌞

                                          Davide     *:.☆

The more mature you are, the more you will practice humility from the bottom of your heart and smile; the more you abandon the attitudes of superiority, the more you will create a family in which the harmony that springs from love reigns.

Corale N°6   " Possa la pace essere la tua visione " 🌞

The indoctrination of the masses, the manipulation of information, sowing chaos, wars and misery.

Notturno   ☆:*´¨`*

La macchina dell’abbondanza ci ha dato povertà. La scienza ci ha trasformato in cinici, l’avidità ci ha resi duri e cattivi. Pensiamo troppo e sentiamo poco. Più che macchinari, ci serve umanità. Più che abilità, ci serve bontà e gentilezza. Senza queste qualità, la vita è violenza e tutto è perduto."
------------------------------------------
The machine of abundance has given us poverty. Science has turned us into cynics, greed has made us hard and evil. We think too much and feel little. More than machinery, we need humanity. More than skill, we need goodness and kindness. Without these qualities, life is violence and all is lost."

intermezzo

Dopo aver esiliato Dio, per abbracciare una visione scientista e meccanicistica della vita, la modernità ha imposto di scambiare la stravaganza per normalità, punto finale di una bizzarra concezione di progresso che offre all’Uomo una parvenza di libertà illusoria e apparente, che nasconde, invece, una schiavitù drammatica e sostanziale.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
After having exiled God, to embrace a scientistic and mechanistic vision of life, modernity has forced us to exchange extravagance for normality, the final point of a bizarre conception of progress that offers Man a semblance of illusory and apparent freedom, which hides, instead, a dramatic and substantial slavery.

Wanna be an Engineer  (Covid song - in time of Covid often downloaded))

A girl with a guitar longing for a touch of universe; a song writer, lyricist and singer; a dreamer, a perfectionalist, with her pockets full of laughter and joy. Open to collabs with talented people. Just ask me ...

Involved in different local music associations with my clarinet  (in classic and jazzy mode) ,  I also  love to play the guitar, I love to try to create and produce music with Cubase and different other instruments at home. I love all forms of music. 
Thank you reading these lines, for your kind words , listens and all forms of appreciation and support, I'm always happy to explore,  discover new sounds  and collaborate on this unique platform with wonderful musicians  !!
