The first release for M.P. & RECORDS in 2019 will be “Rosa Rosae”, the brilliant return of Donella Del Monaco and OpusAvantra. A production that, in full Prog style, is instilled with courage and poetic avant-garde audacity and tradition, lyric vocals and pop atmospheres. And it speaks of love, in both forms: Sacred and profane.

Written with Paolo Troncon, who are also entrusted with the piano parts and in whose music Donella dives with his very original reworkings, this album skilfully blends the magical sounds of the Latin that alternates, with its very particular way of singing between lyric and pop, to an extremely poetic and refined Italian. Alongside Troncon: Mauro Martello on flutes, sax and duduk, cellist Laura Balbinot, Andrea De Nardi on keyboards and Giorgio Cedolin on drums.

But the CD is also characterized by exceptional guests. In this new creation Donella wanted some of the most prestigious protagonists of Italian rock: from Tony Esposito to Jenny Sorrenti, from the rock guitar of Alberto Radius to the most interesting and solid male voice of Italian Prog, Lino Vairetti of OSANNA.

The album is scheduled to be released on January 14th 2019 via Italian label M.P. & RECORDS. An album preview can be sampled HERE
