The recording was made direct to stereo master, strictly live-in-studio, during only one session at MagisterArea Studios, Main Hall, Preganziol, Italy, on September 23rd, 2017 THIS IS A PURE AUDIOPHILE RECORDING: during the recording of the digital HD PCM 88.2kHz/24bit master and the contemporary analog master and the subsequent transfer to disc, the entire audio chain was trasformerless. The signal was not passed through any processing device (no compression, no equalization and no corrective editing) at any step during production.

Presentation by Lucia Minetti:

Over the years, I have sung and loved many repertoires, exploring different sound worlds, from fado to Brazilian music, from French chanson to jazz. Since my album Elle, made in 2003 with my teacher Giorgio Gaslini, this is my first work completely dedicated to the standards of the great American songbook, almost a return, awaited and achieved with the maturity acquired after a long journey, to the heart of what has always been the main point of reference of my path. As if it were part of its own nature, jazz can constitute for a musician a way of relating to art in general, a desire for freedom, a desire to experience ever new emotions, to take risks and to put oneself on the line every time one expresses oneself. Together with Pietro and Stefano I found a deep sharing of this spirit, this inclination, which we wanted to call JAZZ NATURE, and which immediately constituted the key to reading a vast repertoire of songs, from the 30s to the 70s, finding our group sound and selecting the tracks for the album with great pleasure. Fully grasping the philosophy of this research and projecting ourselves completely into the era of that jazz, Marco Lincetto proposed a strictly live-in-studio recording method, which would enhance to the maximum the characteristics of our 'NATURE' approach, as well as the extraordinary technical qualities of the audio recording. We enthusiastically accepted the difficult challenge, and lived together an incredible experience, two days during which the music was played, sung, listened to and recorded with the same tension and the same emotional intensity that one experiences in the best concerts.
