Notable Quotes

❝ I find it disgraceful that there is no trace of this album around here...

❝ These were the songs my grandfather loved, songs that go back to a time when young people, like many of you, were fighting in impossible conditions in a war that was hardly understood and whose reasons no one fully grasped.

❝ The most catchy song in Bubola’s entire work - Tutto è Legato - actually tells the story of Judith and Holofernes, but also of Abraham and Isaac and of Jesus on the cross.
