In algebra, on the other hand, it represents the multiplication of two negative forces to generate a positive one. Which it is in a sense the mathematical translation of his artistic creed. Niccolo Fabi presents Less for lessa new disc with 4 unreleased tracks and 6 rearranged together with the Maestro Enrico Melozzi and his Orchestra Notturna Clandestina, a project that draws inspiration from the singer-songwriter’s wonderful concert at theArena of Verona, last October 2nd.

So we opted for a recording that told the long journey of composition and reworking: also because I think live records are a bit reductive compared to the truth of the moment of the performance”. Which for the artist has the contours of a sacred one informality.

I find it increasingly difficult to express myself in the four minutes of a piece, I don’t want to take the risk of become trivial».
«I always think that every record is the last, then inspiration comes, a very precious instant: it’s like a balance, I start from my strong emotion but I make sure it’s not just it a private confession», concludes Fabi, opening up to the future possibility of write a book but still remaining faithful to the sensations he receives while listening a nice song, immediately after registering it. “In those five or six seconds I try a little sense of immortality. It’s what I live for. At that moment I feel I’ve accomplished my mission on earth».
