Italian music group noted for the 1978 album 'Musicanova', performing traditional southern Italian songs and dances.

The available review (robertovolpe, DeBaser) references members and contributors including Teresa De Sio, Carlo D'Angiò, Pippo Cerciello, Robert Fix, Gigi de Rienzo and Toni Esposito, and describes instrumentation such as violin, mandoloncello, bagpipes and tambourine. The 1978 album contains tracks like "Pizzica Minore", "Riturnella" and "Tarantella Finale" and addresses themes including emigration and the Four Days of Naples.

The available review focuses on Musicanova's 1978 album, describing standout tracks and vocalists. It highlights traditional Southern Italian forms (pizzica, tarantella) and themes like emigration and historical memory. Performances by Teresa De Sio and Carlo D'Angiò are repeatedly noted for their expressiveness.

For:Listeners of Italian folk and traditional Neapolitan music; fans of historical and social themes in song.

 The album opens with the thrilling “Pizzica Minore,” a piece that would become one of the classics to be performed in concert both by B. and the other members of the group: Teresa de Sio's passionate voice dominates the song and alternates with Pippo Cerciello's "devilish" violin and the various wind instruments of Robert Fix, while the singer tells us about mystical festivals featuring devils and saints.
