breathtaking
I've been a Gino fan since 1976, but a lot of classical music leaves me cold as I was brought up on it. (My father plays the piano beautifully), This is something else though, Gino's voice really suits this style. The soprano isn't really my cup of tea but that's just down to personal taste. There is something about the way Gino sings (on all his albums) that is so warm and sincere.
I bought this album for my dad as well, he is a classically trained musician, and he absolutely loves it.
still amazing...but
any gino fan knows he can still more than cut it with the vocals,
however this crossover into the realms of a lyrical tenor doesn't do it for me...more's the pity as i am a huge & loyal fan that unfortunately yearns for the old days of storm at sunup and bro 2 bro...even slow love for that matter...hoping it will eventually grow on me, however that awful sop. voice will always be there...bad choice of duetists !
Gino at his emotive best
Although I am a confirmed fan of the Brother to Brother/Nightwalker period where a more progressive approach was favoured by Gino,I must say that this departure into the realms of classical overtones reminiscent of Pauper in Paradise really,I mean really hit the spot for me.He has once again shown he is indeed a master of his craft.I would go so far as to say that, in my humble opinion, he has never sung better or written such beautiful emotive pieces, that carry and support his voice and his impressive vocal range .Full of sweeping lucious strings and lavish orchestrations there has definately been no skimping on the budget thank god and it shows.It sounds huge!. I feel Daniele Bonaviri(who?)deserves a mention for a stunning performance on the acoustic guitar, on Mala Luna.All in all I find "Canto" completely bewitching and enchanting, a "must buy" for fans or for anybody who appreciates the dying art of "the singer"
