Following her successful full house U.S. debut at the Blue Note, this release includes two additional astounding scat tracks (#2 & 13) by Maria Pia De Vito, and an elegantly re-styled booklet filled with photos by Alessandro D'Urso. "When De Vito cut loose with startling intervallic leaps, complex internal overtones and keening, swooping, racing runs, it was a rush. She blew wild and free across Mitchell's already counter-intuitive bar lines. But also on every song, before her solo flights, De Vito did full justice to Mitchell's lyrics. Working in a language other than her own, like an accomplished actress, she brought Mitchell's words to life with altered, personalized meanings." (Thomas Conrad)

So Right: lyrics, melodies, great musicians. An album of songs performed and partly written by four of the most prominent figures in international jazz. From the re-reading of songs by Joni Mitchell, new original songs are sought and written: an excellent union between the language of songwriting and the universal world of jazz, skilfully performed by great artists. An intense and elegant interpretation by one of the leading Italian jazz vocalists, the unequaled Maria Pia De Vito.  http://www.camjazz.com/releases/8024709779526-so-right-cd.html

Core [Coração], the new album from Maria Pia De Vito, was recorded between Rome and Paris. It is a record that is very much felt, and it is intensely transcultural; the title clearly indicates a work of the heart, whose candle was lit by Maria Pia's encounter with the Brazilian composer and guitarist Guinda, and the following poetic meeting with Chico Buarque, who is featured on two pieces of the record, "Todo Sentiment" and "O Meu Guri" (the second a duet in Neapolitan). A translation paper, from Portuguese to Neapolitan, was created side-by-side with the authors, in particular with Chico, in order to preserve and keep intact the beauty, poetry, and musicality of the original texts made in the Neapolitan language. In this metamorphic vision, just like a deep dive into the Brazilian songwriting world, Neapolitan dances meet the Brazilian ones, the visionary samba of Tom Zè meets a Tammurriata and together frame the Chico Buarque masterpiece "Construção"; "Agua E Vinho" by Egberto Gismonti blends to "Voce Voce", a wonderful example of the great Neapolitan melodic tradition. Along with Maria Pia, there are great musicians and long-time companions, instrument virtuosos with a deep sense of interplay; bearers of intimacy and feeling which only the common and long-staging of stages allows: Welsh pianist Huw Warren, who has recorded two albums, Dialektos (2008) and 'O Pata Pata (2011), with Maria Pia. The virtuoso clarinetist Gabriele Mirabassi, with his classical and jazz style, has been linked for many years to Brazilian music and culture; The Brazilian guitarist Roberto Taufic, author of many arrangements and a musician of extraordinary sensibility; Roberto Rossi, a peculiarly creative and unconventional percussionist. https://www.forcedexposure.com/Catalog/de-vito-maria-pia-core-coracao-cd/VVJ.115CD.html
