Piero Nigido, Orchestra M Costabile - Vecchia Napoli

Review by Jordi Sarola

Vecchia Napoli by Piero Nigido and Orchestra M Costabile is a beautiful album that captures the essence of Naples, Italy. The album features a mix of traditional Neapolitan songs and original compositions by Nigido, all performed with the orchestral arrangements of M Costabile.

The album opens with "O Sole Mio," a classic Neapolitan song that has been covered by countless artists over the years. Nigido and the orchestra give the song a fresh interpretation, with soaring strings and a lively rhythm section. Other highlights include "Funiculì Funiculà," "Santa Lucia," and "Torna a Surriento," all of which are performed with passion and skill.

Nigido's original compositions are also a standout feature of the album. "Era De Maggio" is a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Nigido's emotive vocals, while "Vecchia Napoli" is a lively and upbeat track that celebrates the city's rich culture and history.

Summary by Jordi Sarola

Vecchia Napoli is a delightful album that will transport listeners to the vibrant streets of Naples. Nigido and Orchestra M Costabile have created a timeless tribute to one of Italy's most beloved cities, and their passion and talent shine through in every track.
