Rino De Patre feat. Dominic Miller - La Strada (from the album Sound Of The Rainbow)

"La Strada", one of the first songs composed after the release of my previous album, was written in a morning of reflection on the journey of life.
Walking along a sunny road in my country in Abruzzo, between sea and mountains, I thought about the journey of life and I reflected, above all, about the Artistic itinerary traveled up to that moment and the path still to be traveled. In short, I was thinking about the destination, but above all I was imagining the journey.
The notes, full of evocative force, arrived suddenly, like a gift from someone, not from this earth.
The piece was imagined and conceived from the beginning to be performed in duo. I hoped to meet someone to connect with and to share the performance with.
Not long after, I was lucky enough to meet and know Dominic Miller (guitarist, composer and collaborator of Sting) who played this piece (La strada) with me. In addition to a friendship, an artistic collaboration was born between us based on mutual esteem and respect.
