The idea behind Passione E Musica is a journey into different music styles inspired by a passionate love for music throughout Italian guitarist Enrico Rosa's compositions and arrangements. Seven of his songs are performed on classical guitar, while two feature clean electric guitar ("Classical Feel", recorded live at Kolding Musical Institute in Denmark, and "The Kite", a jazz ballad composed in memory of the great Thad Jones). The acoustic pieces include "Sunset", a passionate solo performance, "Livorno 1973", a relaxed conversation between two guitars inspired by reminiscences of Italy, and "Italian Irish", a guitar ballad that ends as a lively tarantella. Passione E Musica is a great introduction to the recorded work of Rosa - who has been educated in both the classical and jazz fields, and who has recorded in studios since 1970.
