Pippo Pollina & Palermo Acoustic Quintet - In Concerto

With more than 4,000 concerts across Europe, Pippo Pollina ranks among the most beloved Italian singer-songwriters of his generation. His restless creativity has kept surprising loyal fans for over 35 years - through lyrical ballads, poetic protest songs, and rock-tinged numbers alike. Whatever the form, his musical voice stays sensitive and tender.

Beyond his own band, he has collaborated with a remarkable range of international artists: Georges Moustaki, Franco Battiato, Inti Illimani, Konstantin Wecker, Rebekka Bakken, Charlie Mariano, and Werner Schmidbauer & Martin Kälberer, among others.

Pollina exults and ruminates, chats and reflects - with a rough yet resonant voice, occasionally a touch laconic, but never without a deep reverence for the beauty of sound and the power of art. Music is a gift. That is the foundation, despite all doubts.
