Our Take

Ambrogio Sparagna's latest compilation album, "Stories 1986-2016," is a whimsical journey through the last three decades of his musical career. Known for his unconventional blend of traditional Italian folk music with avant-garde elements, Sparagna proves once again that he is a master of innovation.

From the hauntingly beautiful "Tarantella Nera" to the infectious energy of "La Pizzica Delle Trame," Sparagna showcases his talent for blending ancient melodies with modern sensibilities. Each track is a testament to his ability to bridge the gap between past and present, creating a sound that is at once nostalgic and fresh.

Sparagna's virtuosity on the accordion is on full display throughout the album, with his intricate finger work and emotive playing drawing listeners in from the very first note. His use of traditional Italian instruments such as the tamburello and mandolin adds a depth and richness to the music that is truly captivating.

While "Stories 1986-2016" may not be for everyone, those with an appreciation for boundary-pushing folk music will find much to love in Sparagna's latest offering. With its unique blend of tradition and experimentation, this album is a testament to Sparagna's enduring talent and creativity. So sit back, pour yourself a glass of wine, and let Ambrogio Sparagna take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget.
