Snob

Description

This 15-track album draws its influences from Latin sounds to jazz, from the nostalgic atmosphere of the fifties to the ironic vein. Snob promises to be as intriguing, sophisticated but also playful and passionate as Paolo Conte's previous great standards. With a career spanning over 40 years, Paolo Conte is described by the New York Times as "the voice of a gruff smoker, a piano style that wanders from honky-tonk to tango palace, from elegant cabaret, and a view of a patinated romantic world; which has made Paolo Conte a recognized songwriter in Italy." In reality, he is also popular in Europe and in many countries around the world thanks to his reputation as an incredible performer. His entire repertoire takes the listener on an emotional journey through songs inspired by books, films, and the imaginative development of facts or personal experiences: poetic fragments of brief encounters, sudden enthusiasms, and nostalgic memories.
