Joe Barbieri - Maison Maravilha (new album)
As a painter that paints the sea with the sea´s water - obtaining pictures just more than completely white - Joe Barbieri sings the air with the air, the absence with the absence, the empty space with the empty space.
Perfect guitarist; singer who seems to explain to you, whispering directly to your ear, all the small variations of the human soul; delicious singer, meticulous songwriter talking minimal and evanescent things: all this is Joe Barbieri.
After having collaborated with Pino Daniele, Giorgia and Patrizia Laquidara, Barbieri releases at the end of 2004 – for it´s own indie label – a debut album that conquered the audience of every country where it´s been published (USA, Canada, Japan, Austria, Switzerland, China, Germany – where it got the honour of ´album of the year´ – and, ofcourse his home country, Italy). The CD, titled ‘In Parole Povere’, is been enpowered by many music stars and by a duet with the singer/songwriter Mario Venuti titled ‘Pura ambra’.
As a producer Joe Barbieri worked on World Music act Kantango, releasing their first album (a second CD is work in progress) and collaborating with jazz and world music stars such as Lura, Richard Galliano and Susana Baca.
In summer of 2009 Joe Barbieri came back home with a brand new album titled ‘Maison Maravilha’: 11 enchanting new songs, wrapped by an overwhelming strings orchestra and special song featuring of the Cuban allstar Omara Portuondo (from Buena Vista Social Club) on a fado titled ‘Malegria’, that appears to become a ´classic´.
‘Maison Maravilha’ has been released in more than 12 countries and has sold more than 20.000 copies already.
