From the enchantment of the pre-Roman mythology to the "villanelles" of the first millennium, from the "canzonetta" of the 16th century to the art songs of the 19th, the Neapolitan song thrives and evolves in the encounters, exchanges and crossbreedings of the innumerable cultures that met in the ancient Parthenope. Without the possibility of being exhaustive in a historical way nor in the expression of the multiple forms that have marked its various periods, "An Anthology of Napolitan Song", covering the last four centuries, is already largely sufficient to highlight the formal and spiritual contents which made its fame beyond the limits of the Italian peninsula. From listening to the two CDs by Romano Zanotti the attraction and emotional intensity of these eternal songs quickly capture the sensitivity of all those who hear & feel within the music the past and present echoes of the sufferings that the people of the earth could or did not want to deliver to official "History".
