Panta, Ermanno & Zeitun, Banda
Isla Musa
Ermanno Panta & Banda Zeitun transform Mediterranean soundscapes into an "islander muse" inspired world music/jazz. Ermanno Panta is a composer, singer and multi-instrumentalist originally from Sicily with a deep respect for Sicilian music, flamenco, African and jazz. His tours and musical studies around the world are the inspiring sources of an eclectic repertoire, transforming Banda Zeitun's music into one voice, an authentic live ritual. The lyrics are in Spanish, Catalan, Sicilian and Arabic offering a symbolic commitment to diversity. Trance, joy and modern taste coexist in the album as well as at live concerts.
