MANUEL VOLPE & RHABDOMANTIC ORCHESTRA ALBOREAgogo Records 2016

“On a complètement craqué sur ce disque: un album complet et élégant. Magnifique.” “Dix compositions finement ciselées par Manuel Volpe qui nous embarquent dans un voyage initiatique et spirituel vers un monde hypnotique (...). Un songe merveilleux”FIP RADIO FRANCE - France (album de la semaine)

“...tutto“...tutto concorre a tessere un incantesimo fluente. Volpe compone, arrangia, suona e offre il suo canto sommesso: con un senso della parola magica e un tocco da rabdomante."INTERNAZIONALE - Italy (album della settimana)

"Sie lullt ein, verführt, nimmt mit auf Traumreisen."FUNKHAUS EUROPA WDR1 - Germany

"Αριστουργηματικό"Αριστουργηματικό ντεμπούτο για τους Manuel Volpe & The Rhabdomatic Orchestra, που σου θυμίζει τον Leonard Cohen παρέα με τον Tom Waits να τζαμάρουν κινηματογραφική μουσική σε μια αφρικάνικη έρημο"ATHENS VOICE - Greece (best of 2016)

"Sanfte"Sanfte orientalische Einflüsse und Afrobeat-inspirierte Bläserarrangements erzeugen einen ultrarelaxten souligen Jazz-Sound" HHV.de - Germany (7.3)

"una"una fusion dai timbri caldi e dall'inflessione avvolgente, una sequela di diapositive che raccontano luoghi magici eppure così reali da avere la sensazione di finirci dentro. Sul talento di Volpe avevamo già scommesso tempo fa, oggi ne abbiamo una prevedibile conferma"IL MUCCHIO - Italy (7)



"Un disco con un tratamiento artesanal de la melodía y con detalles instrumentales que no pasan desapercibidos." LA PROVENCIA - Spain

"Sur"Sur Albore, sa voix est moelleuse et envoutante. Décharnée de presque tout aspect mélodique mais ronronnant dans les graves pour mieux les modeler, comme l’ombre révèle ou masque la lumière. Et c’est une très belle richesse instrumentale, aux diverses ambiances, tantôt africaines, tantôt maritimes, qui l’accompagne"PUBLIK’ART - France (album coup de coer)

"Albo"Albore è un album suonato ad alti livelli, ci troviamo davanti a professionisti dello strumento, consapevoli di quello che stanno suonando e delle loro capacità."MUSIC COAST TO COAST - Italy

"„Albore" ist Kopfmusik und Bauchmusik zugleich, sie kann zum Träumen verleiten, aber auch zum Tanzen animieren. [...] eine klare Empfehlung!"VINYLVINYLFAN - Germany

"...Rhabdomantic"...Rhabdomantic Orchestra блестяще получился невольный трюк, который практически невозможно просчитать заранее: просто включите альбом в режиме автоповтора – и вы раз за разом будете слышать разную музыку. Как это возможно? Всё дело в натуральной магии, замешанной на безграничной любви к музыке и к культуре различных цивилизаций” BLACK MUSIC PROMO - BLACK MUSIC PROMO - Russia
