Gianmaria Testa's warm, dusky voice tells stories of wind and memories, earth and fog, objects that soar from one horizon to another. His music is personal and richly melodic, flecked with accents of tango, bossa nova, habanera and jazz, but as spare and essential as a pencil sketch, imparting great beauty with simplicity and directness.
"Da questa parte del mare" is his last artistic production. It is a "concept album", wholly focussed on a single topic, that of modern migrations.
