Simone Zanchini writes of this new release: "In general, I've never been interested in tributes, homage, revisiting. Personally, I've always found them something old, rather pathetic and tied to the past. But when I was asked to make a tribute to Secondo Casdei, I couldn't refuse. No, Casadei is something else! Because Casadei represents my past, like the past of all Romagna people: not just a musical past, but past life in general. Beacause if you're born in Romagna and you decide, when you're seven, to play the accordion, Casadei automatically becomes a necessary stage the invades your life." One of the most interesting and innovative accordionists on the international scene, his research moves through the boundaries of contemporary music, acoustics and electronics, sound experimentation, and cultivated contamination without forgetting tradition, thus resulting in a very personal approach to improvisation. He graduated with honors in classical accordion at the "G. Rossini" Conservatory of Pesaro, under Maestro Sergio Scappini. An eclectic instrumentalist, he has intense concert activities with groups of different musical extractions (improvisation, contemporary music, jazz, and classical). He has played in major festivals and shows in Italy and in the most important international festivals.
