BiZ Project: Il senso della vita/The Meaning of Life

BiZ Project started out when Roberto Balsamo and Peter Zuvela got together to jam out a few old Italian tunes which then resulted in the BiZ Project. After a while they decided to write new songs. The first was Teo. The idea is to create Italian World Music in Fremantle that has a large migrant Italian population.

The CD features (recored 2014) Roberto Balsamo's beautiful voice as well as Peter Zuvela unique acoustic guitar. It's always been Peter's dream to incorporate a little bit of his own family Croatian-Dalmatian heritage into his music. The teaming up with Roberto made this possible. Some of the songs on IL Mare CD are newly written songs and old instrumentals that Peter wrote before. Together, Roberto and Peter rewrote the instrumentals, which all feature on the CD.

Roberto Balsamo was born in Rome, Italy. Hi migrate to Australia in 1999. Roberto has a soulful relaxed voice suited for classical and contemporary world music. The timbre of his voice is Latin Mediterranean.

In the late nineties he was part of the Blues Rock band Sisters of Frankstein who released a CD in 1998 titled 'Man Trouble'. Later he was part of Fremantle based alternative rock band Intrinsic as well as the Mutima Band.

The Man Trouble CD was recorded at the famous Couch Studios in Fremantle.

BiZ Project è nato quando Roberto Balsamo e Peter Zuvela si sono incontrati per suonare insieme qualche vecchia canzone italiana, che poi ha dato vita al BiZ Project. Dopo un po' hanno deciso di scrivere nuove canzoni. La prima è stata Teo. L'idea è di creare musica mondiale italiana a Fremantle, in Australia 🇦🇺, dove c'è una grande popolazione di migranti italiani.
