Tavernanova's debut album Taverna Nova (1995) is praised for drawing on the popular traditions of Apulia and Corato. The review highlights a skilled ensemble blending classical, jazz and ethnic elements into a refined traditional-folk sound. Lyrics and dialectical musicality are noted as central to the album's character. Recommended for listeners who appreciate traditional-folk music.

For:Listeners who appreciate traditional-folk music, Italian regional/Apulian music, and ethnically-influenced ensembles.

 The debut album of Tavernanova draws heavily from the vast popular tradition of Apulia and Corato, birthplace of the musical octet, and gives us fragments of daily life of the almost vanished southern peasant civilization.
