Living In Shadows And Light
the new album by Fabiana Martone
LIVING IN SHADOWS AND LIGHT is an album entirely dedicated to Joni Mitchell and her production of the late seventies: in this period she approached jazz and played with musicians of the American jazz and fusion scene.
I recorded a selection of 7 songs making a choose among some of the most significant ones from albums like "Mingus", "The hissing of summer lawns"... like Joni Mitchell did in her concert "shadows and light".
And in a fluid and natural way I collected sensations and suggestions around these songs until I decided to call my album "living in shadows and light" to underline how I lived in the past few months of my life, guided by Joni' s words and sound.
I also tried to re-interpret the tunes by arrangements made in collaboration with the musicians with whom I shared this fabolous three days of live recording session.
The songs included in "Living in shadows and light ":
Shadows and light
In France they kiss on main Street
God must be a boogie man
Edith and the kingpin
Goodbye pork pie hat
Woodstock
Last chance lost
