'Cantada' is the second album of Quintetto Nigra, a cappella vocal group that combines the popular tradition of the repertoire with the cultured music of the performance, hints of jazz and opera quotations.
Strengthened by this eclectic spirit, the Quintet presents songwriter's songs in language more or less known, up to quotations by Rossini and Verdi. There are also songs of the Italian and Piedmontese tradition, with some beyond the border episodes. A repertoire enriched by arrangements of great finesse and inventiveness and vocal interpretations of extraordinary ability.
