Hi, I'm Gabriella Vuxani and I'm a singer-songwriter from Trieste. Music has always been part of my life.When I was a little girl I listened to Beatles songs, then I discovered American music from the West Coast (Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Eagles, Jackson Browne, Carole King, Joni Mitchell, etc.)
I studied piano at the Conservatory... but the passion for pop and rock music was too strong, so I abandoned my classical studies to play the songs of my favorites. For several years I played the keyboards in a blues band, and then performed in public with a cover band of 70s-80s songs. A few years ago I started writing songs: in English, because the way of expressing myself was shaped by many years of listening to American music. I hope you will enjoy my songs! 😊

Presentazione Carousel
Переглядів 25Місяць тому
This song was born as an instrumental piece, an exercise in harmony on suspended chords, and remained in the drawer for a few years. One spring day a few years ago, I felt the desire to go for a walk in the park of Villa Revoltella in Trieste. When I was a child my dad often took me there to play after school. My passion, like that of many other children, was going on the carousel. Returning to...
Presentazione Walk alone
Переглядів 302 місяці тому
I wrote this song in March 2020. It was the first day of lockdown. In the evening I looked out the window of my room: it was all dark, and there was a surreal, disturbing silence. This situation of looming, unknown threat evoked an inner darkness. I sat down at the piano and the beginning of the song came to me straight away: (“Now you walk alone, in your empty room, poisoning your soul, you ca...
Presentazione Pygmalion
Переглядів 262 місяці тому
This song refers to the classical myth of the sculptor Pygmalion, who had sculpted a statue of his ideal woman, asking Aphrodite to bring her to life. In the song the myth is transposed into a daily relationship where Pygmalion is seen in a negative sense, because it goes against the nature of the woman next to him, not respecting her personality. Pygmalion chisels and makes what is not a statu...
Presentazione The House on the Hill
Переглядів 182 місяці тому
This song was inspired by a ruined villa on the hill behind my house. I imagined a woman looking out of a window of the villa on a gray rainy day, remembering an unequal love she can't still accept ("My hope still lingers on / unwilling to give up the fight"), even if this feeling has dried up her soul (“Unequal love dried up my soul like the desert sand, Yet I still hold your thorny rose like ...
Presentazione Cold Hands live
Переглядів 542 місяці тому
This song is a special one for me. It's my first song, a melancholic ballad inspired by the end of a love story (“Dreams that we shared, plans that we made / all fade away in this empty sky”). The cold hands of the title are the hands that no longer transmit passion and feeling: the emotional detachment is chilling and the hands that have been joined for a long time are definitively detached (“...
Presentazione Summer Night Smile
Переглядів 262 місяці тому
A fast-paced rock song, the story of the fateful meeting with the man who would later become my husband: the "cursed poet", as he was called at the time of his radio broadcast, where he recited poems inspired by Charles Bukowski. A sudden smile becomes a flash of happiness that pierces the summer night and makes it incandescent (“Suddenly he turned and smiled / a flash in the night!) Walking by...
Presentazione Falling Star
Переглядів 112 місяці тому
One afternoon I was at my parents' house, and the TV was on in the living room. I was attracted by the interview of a famous TV presenter, who I had known as always smiling and cheerful. In that interview, however, he was talking about a difficult moment he had gone through, recalling the same sensations I had felt many years earlier in a similar situation. So I sat down at the piano and wrote ...
Presentazione C. F. S.P.
Переглядів 212 місяці тому
This song is dedicated to four special women, my best friends, with whom I shared a long path (“C.F.S.P. we travel together on the same road, to carry the torches of an everlasting light”) The title of the song comes from the initials of their names: Chiara, Fedora, Sandra, Paola. While the song always remains in the same key, each verse has a different musical appearance, because it's a small ...
Presentazione Life in the Slow Lane
Переглядів 612 місяці тому
The title of the song is clearly inspired by the well-known Eagles song “Life in the fast lane”: a life lived at maximum speed, well represented in the album Hotel California. In contrast to the life described by the Eagles, my song is an affectionate mockery of my husband's laziness, and of his living "in the slow lane". The verse that most exemplifies the spirit of the song is certainly ”If y...
Presentazione Butterfly
Переглядів 272 місяці тому
Butterfly, the title-track of the album, is a cheerful pop song, inspired by the painting “Liberation” by Dusedda Oriolo, depicted on the CD cover. One day a caterpillar-woman finally awakens as a butterfly-woman (“Spread your wings and fly, leave your old life behind”). She frees herself from painful memories and from the cage of pre-established roles that imprison her. So now she flies high i...
