5.0 out of 5 stars Angelo Di Pippo - An Italian-American Musical Institution, April 15, 2003

This review is from: Accordion Italiano (Audio CD)

I can still remember, 35 years ago, listening to an album, that my parents played on their then-new Magnavox console stereo system, that had the most beautiful accordion sounds that I had ever heard. The album was on the now-defunct FIESTA label and I can say that I am now the proud owner of it and I now play it for my sons. That album, Accordion Italiano, featuring Angelo Di Pippo, has been faithfully and digitally reproduced so that a new generation of listeners can bask in the melodies and expert musicianship. I have had the pleasure of meeting Angelo personally on the phone and have found him to be a charming, unassuming and friendly individual. I am now proud to be able to call him friend! His credits speak volumes of his influence to the musical community at-large. This CD is, as others have said, perfect for background dinner music, great when you're driving in the car and a perfect choice for regular playing on our three Italian radio programs in the Northeastern Ohio area. His playing is flawless, fluid and captivating. The tarantellas, polkas and waltzes that he plays, will bring you that much closer to Abbruzzi, Calabria, Napoli and Sicilia! "Tante Grazie" e "Buon Salute" to Angelo Di Pippo, an Italian-American Musical Institution!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cheers and Tears, September 18, 2004

This review is from: Accordion Italiano (Audio CD)

Hip, hip hooray! This is an album of excellent musicianship with an excellent selection of songs. Listening to it is sure to soothe the Italian/American soul, jump start the Italian/American heart, bring tears to the eyes, and resurect memories of growing up in an Italian home. Listening is enhanced with a glass of vino di tavola, thinly sliced capicola, a piece of provolone, and a hunk of rustic bread. I love it! I've bought several copies as gifts for family members.

Whether it's a romantic dinner for two, or if you like to entertain with a full blown Italian dinner, with good pasta, home made sauce, Italian sausages, antipasto, Chianti, freshly grated cheeses, served on red and white checkered tablecloths, this beautiful Italian music will definitely complete the mood and atmosphere, and leave you dreaming of floating down a river in Venice.
