    Carlo Aonzo Trio - Mandol Italy

    Savona, Italy — Carlo Aonzo has announced the release of the new Carlo Aonzo Trio recording Mandolitaly.

    On the project the band presents an interesting repertoire of Italian music chosen among the evergreens of the Italian national tradition, arranged with the unique personal 'Carlo Aonzo Trio' style.

    The Trio, featuring Aonzo on Italian mandolin, Lorenzo Piccone on guitar and Luciano Puppo on double bass, made a real trip around the world musical genres last year with the release of their first album, A Mandolin Journey.

    This work celebrates the Mandolin as icon of the Italian culture in the world following its evolution through centuries and continents and was presented during a very intense musical tour through many Italian towns and the United States where it was warmly welcomed by both audience and critics.
