7th of February, 2003
MP Records in Italy have announced the upcoming release of Fabio Liberatori's new CD entitled "Asimov Assembly," featuring two songs written and performed by Sonja, "Eyes Do More Than See" and "Nightfall." The release date is the 14th of February.
The press release:
"Ten years ago, ISAAC ASIMOV died; he was surely one of the biggest science-fiction writers of the Century......and why not? Also a prophet of the time-to-come.....Here is a tribute to his mind and work, through the sensibility of a group of great musicians. FABIO LIBERATORI, on his second album for M.P. Records is one of the most acclaimed soundtrack composers in Italy.....after he worked for years with the group "STADIO" and produced many albums for many Italian artists; SONJA KRISTINA does not need any introduction -- she was the sweet singer of CURVED AIR, and her career went on as a soloist with even more success....on this album she wrote and sang two beautiful songs....and also ARTURO STALTERI is very well known: after being a member of PIERROT LUNAIRE, he started his solo adventure and he is now one of the greatest contemporary music composers and performers in Italy. This album is an electronic voyage through the mind and thought of Isaac Asimov....but many acoustic moments (and the wonderful voice of Sonja and the sweet touch of Arturo at the piano) will bring you into a journey among planets, stars......and a future day by day closer to the present." Contact MP Records at mp-records@libero.it for purchasing information.
Sonja has been invited to participate in another new Italian recording project. Tony Pagliuca, a legendary Italian prog-rock musician best known as the keyboard player of Le Orme, is recording his comeback album. The CD will feature other special guest artists including David Jackson, former Van Der Graff Generator saxophonist. The recordings are tentatively scheduled to begin in April or May 2003 in Italy. Plans are also in the works for possible live performances -- in fact, the album itself may be recorded live. As we get more information, we'll post it here.
