Paolo Conte releases new single 'Lavavetri'

Paolo Conte releases today his brand new single “Lavavetri”, which precedes the upcoming album “Live in Caracalla – 50 years of Azzurro” that will be out on November 9th via BMG. The album has been recorded live at the incredible venue of Caracallae Thermae while Paolo Conte, accompanied by an exclusive orchestra, was celebrating the 50 years of his masterpiece “Azzurro”.

Born in Asti, Piedmont, Paolo Conte is one of the most iconic Italian songwriters, acclaimed worldwide. “Lavavetri”, through the warm voice of a fictional character (lavavetri means window-cleaner in Italian), seems to describe Conte’s vision of the world.

The Orchestra accompanying Paolo Conte is composed by: Nunzio Barbieri (Guitar – Electric Guitar), Lucio Caliendo (Oboe – Bassoon – Percussions – Keyboard), Claudio Chiara (Alto Sax – Tenor Sax – Baritone Sax – Flute – Accordeon – Bass – Keyboard), Daniele Dall’Omo (Guitar), Daniele Di Gregorio (Drums – Percussions – Marimba – Piano), Luca Enipeo (Guitar), Massimo Pitzianti (Accordeon – Bandoneon – Clarinet – Baritone Sax – Piano – Keyboard), Piergiorgio Rosso (Violin), Jino Touche (Double Bass – Electric Guitar), Luca Velotti (Soprano Sax – Tenor Sax – Contralto Sax – Bariton Sax - Clarinet), Francesca Gosio (violoncello), Natalino Ricciardo (corno francese), James Thompson (sax), Ginger Brew (vocals) e Julie Brannen (vocals).
