We are always immersed in fantasies of all kinds, from positive to negative, from joyful to dramatic. Each person, from time to time, prefers one and becomes attached to it, choosing the most suitable film for themselves. No one can escape from dreams. Depressed people live a fantastical version of their dreadful past and their horrible future. We all reinvent our past and our future every day. Facts did not unfold as we remember them, and nothing will happen the way we predicted. We have remembered dozens of different pasts and dreamed thousands of different futures. Nothing can tear us away from our fantasies, from the very first day of life. I believe this is a characteristic of ours, not a flaw. It would be impossible for us to do without it and continue to live. Even the most pragmatic, or even cynical, people are gripped by a fantasy, perhaps that of living in a cold, desolate world, lacking beauty and emotions, or populated by stupid or malicious beings. The philosopher dreams of having clarified the human condition in the universe; the religious person dreams of being forgiven by their god for the horrible things they have done and will do. Some dream of living in a world where only those who are inferior and irrelevant suffer, so they can enjoy their wealth without embarrassment. Others still see suffering, but live the dream of being able to fight it. Musicians live the dream of making their fellow human beings happy. Those who listen to music live in the dream that musicians are special creatures immersed in a life full of stimuli and fulfillment. Music producers live in the dream of having produced music of the highest level, and that this will one day be recognized. I dream that one day it will be possible for us all to meet in the same place, to have a big laugh about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLisbon, September 2003\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/velut-luna\"\u003eExplore the Velut Luna collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Velut Luna","offers":[{"title":"LP 33 rpm","offer_id":50426410467675,"sku":"CVLD391LP","price":39.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Hi-Res WAV file 96 kHz · 24 bit","offer_id":49759073534299,"sku":"CVLD086","price":18.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/1016\/6580\/files\/gold-fingers-30-anniversary-massimo-salvagnini-quintet-patrizia-laquidara-lp-anniversary-cover.jpg?v=1793653153"},{"product_id":"falling-in-love-porter-orchestra-di-padova-e-del-veneto-parente-balladore","title":"Falling in Love | Cheryl Porter","description":"\u003cp\u003eCheryl Porter performs twelve songs with the Orchestra di Padova e del Veneto, conducted by Maffeo Scarpis, in arrangements by Massimo Parente.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMusicians\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheryl Porter — vocals; Massimo Parente — piano and arrangements; Franco Lion — double bass; Paolo Balladore — drums; Orchestra di Padova e del Veneto; Maffeo Scarpis — conductor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFormats and editions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCD — CVLD128CD\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eHi-Res WAV file — 88.2 kHz · 24 bit — CVLD128\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProgramme\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\u003cli\u003eThe Summer Knows — Legrand\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eBewitched — Rodgers, Hart\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eWhat Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life — Legrand\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eYou’ve Changed — Carey, Fisher\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eNever Let Me Go — Livingston, Evans\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eNo Moon at All — Evans, Mann\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eYou Don’t Know What Love Is — Raye, De Paul\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eOne Hand, One Heart — Bernstein, Sondheim\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eMore Than You Know — Rose, Eliscu, Youmans\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eSomeone to Watch Over Me — G. \u0026amp; I.

Cheryl Porter is one of the few true great jazz voices of today. Authoritative international critics have described her as an interpreter capable of combining the great class of Sarah Vaughan with the versatility and vocal power of Shirley Bassey. In this album, therefore, Cheryl Porter plays the role of an ideal protagonist, capable of guaranteeing the interpretive authority necessary to succeed in the ambitious aim of recreating the atmospheres and sounds of the great jazz albums with orchestra produced by Capitol Records and Columbia between the late 50s and early 60s: unforgettable pieces from the American songbook, such as Bewitched, You've changed, You don't know what love is, Smile, Someone to watch over me, and many others find in this album the original groove and passion that made them immortal pages of 20th-century musical culture. The original arrangements composed for the occasion by Massimo Parente are fundamental to achieving the result. To recreate as much as possible the unique and original sound of Capitol records, the recording was made strictly live over two days in the large Auditorium Pollini in Padua, skillfully mixing the most sophisticated digital technology available today with \"vintage\" microphones and analog tube stages.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Velut Luna Production\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExecutive Producer Marco Lincetto\u003cbr\u003eArtistic Producers Massimo Parente, Fabio Framba, Cheryl Porter, Marco Lincetto\u003cbr\u003eSound Engineer Marco Lincetto\u003cbr\u003eEditing and Mastering Engineers Matteo Costa, Marco Lincetto\u003cbr\u003eGraphics crea Sandra Galliazzo\u003cbr\u003ePhotography Davide Toniolo\u003cbr\u003eMarketing Francesco Pesavento\u003cbr\u003eSales Management Moreno Danieli\u003cbr\u003eWorld Wide sales contacts Cristiana Dalla Valle\u003cbr\u003ePress Agent Emanuela Dalla Valle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Velut Luna","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50030225981787,"sku":"CVLD128CD","price":18.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hi-Res file 88.2kHz · 24bit WAV","offer_id":49793408205147,"sku":"CVLD128","price":18.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/1016\/6580\/files\/128-cover.jpg?v=1735565621"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.referencemusicstore.com\/collections\/franco-lion.oembed","provider":"Reference Music Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
