Roberto Ottaviano

With his latest CD Eternal Love, Roberto Ottaviano puts the accent on music as medicine of the soul and as a cement of collective identities. Eternal Love is a tribute to Africa, its culture, its music and its people, in an era of migrations and racial intolerances that seems to bring us back to the America of the '50s and' 60s, by Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King. With a selection of compositions by Don Cherry, Abdullah Ibrahim, Charlie Haden, John Coltrane, Dewey Redman, Elton Dean and original pieces, in an exciting journey that invites listeners to go beyond the notes, looking for an inner depth without which it is difficult to be able to propose as models to new generations, not just artists.
