“I was cursed by the music. Even when I slept or woke up, I had music in my head. Life is an adventure and a challenge. It is not something to ask for stability. It is a change to continue creation "     Miles Davis

 

Cantabile by Michel Petrucciani, Speak Life a remix of the original track by Grammy award winner Damian Marley, the youngest son of Bob Marley, and the song dedicated to Miles Davis, Dreaming Miles are just three of the songs contained in MUSIC FOR LOVE VOL.1. Listening to Fabrizio Bosso's trumpet on a piece by Petrucciani, Riccardo Onori's guitar together with Stefano De Donato's bass on a piece by Damian Marley is not common.

Born from an idea of ​​the Italian textile entrepreneur who lives in the United States Franco Nannucci, which he had following a concert and a recording session in Italy in the summer of 2019, and after taking shape in September of the same year thanks to the intervention by Stefano De Donato, the eclectic founder and bassist of the funk group Dirotta su Cuba, MUSIC FOR LOVE VOL.1, distributed in globally by Music for Love and Maqueta Records will be released on Friday, January 22nd.

 

“This is a big and ambitious project. It was a real journey, a movie, a puzzle that one by one found the pieces to complete itself. Like magic - says Franco Nannucci - An idea that lasted 15 months until it found its final form. An idea born almost by chance from the dream of being able to listen to Michel Petrucciani playing with Fabrizio Bosso, from a song and message by Damian Marley, and the dream of dedicating a song to Miles Davis. Dreams that I would never have believed I could achieve ”.

“Many serious and important projects arise from fun moments: in front of a pizza, Franco threw me the challenge .... to compose, arrange and produce an album with 30 musicians, of different nationalities, different genres, different musical languages, and an unprovable duo of Visionary Dreamers. From Istanbul to Rio, from Moscow to Senegal passing via New York via Kingston ... around the world in a single Album and for a common purpose ... a journey not to escape from life but not to let it escape !!! The experience was beautiful and equally tiring but now, that I have finished the production, I miss that continuous creative stimulus that I have literally quenched my thirst for over a year ... and I no longer listen to music in the same way as before” the comment of Stefano De Donato

But not only. In addition to the dream of being able to dedicate a song to Miles Davis, one of the most famous jazz players in history, as well as being able to merge the voices and sounds of 29 artists from 8 countries into 14 songs, MUSIC FOR LOVE VOL. 1 blends musical influences and musical inspirations from all over the world to an important charitable project, thanks to the non-profit organization MUSIC FOR LOVE, founded by Franco Nannucci, aimed at providing tangible and effective financial support to various charity projects around the world.

100% of the proceeds from the sale of the album and any concerts/merchandise will be in fact donated to the FABRIZIO MEONI ONLUS FOUNDATION and to the GHETTO YOUTHS FOUNDATION, the charitable organization founded and directed by Stephen, Damian, and Julian Marley, sons of the legend Bob Marley.

“The collaboration with the Ghetto Youths Foundation has energized our organization in an incredible way, as it is easy to imagine. A small organization like ours, born in 2016 and grown thanks to my commitment and financial support with few friends - continued Franco Nannucci - Having the opportunity to collaborate with the Marley family, which represents Bob Marley, an icon of world music and its message of peace, solidarity, and equality on a global scale, is not only a great honor and opportunity but above all an important responsibility for me and all of us ”.
