  • Description

    Blending jazz and world music, the MinAfric Orchestra was founded in 2007 as a natural continuation of Pino Minafra's Sud Ensemble. The orchestra, which also involves Livio Minafra as composer and arranger, is composed by the elite of Apulian jazz: Roberto Ottaviano, Gaetano Partipilo, Nicola Pisani and Giorgio Vendola.

    There are also some important musicians who have shared passions and projects with Minafra for a long time: Sebi Tramontana, Beppe Caruso, Carlo Actis Dato, to name a few. Guests of the album is the vocal quartet Faraualla with their ancestral sound and mystery.

    A warm and generous sound, tormented and dramatic, where the cry, the melody, the rhythm, the irony and improvisation work together in a strange equilibrium. An all-Southern Italian sound which draws from both a real and an imaginary South. A land in continuous metamorphosis which has geographically been a natural bridge and port throughout the centuries towards the East, the Mediterranean, Africa, the Balkans and today towards the New Europe.
