Album Notes & Community Reviews

The gravel-voiced Italian maestro returned with an elegant, nostalgic tribute to the romance and musical forms of the early 20th century. '900' (Novecento) effortlessly blends his sophisticated, cinematic songwriting with cabaret jazz, tango, and sweeping orchestral arrangements. The album further cemented his international reputation as one of Italy's most poetic and distinguished musical exports.
