Mauro Pagani

Reissue of Mauro Pagani's theatrical masterwork Sogno Di Una Notte D'Estate, originally released in 1981 and out of print on vinyl for over 40 years - a musical journey born from a theatrical production conceived by Gabriele Salvatores, with Pagani composing a sonic landscape that lives and breathes independently as pure imagination, passion, and Mediterranean roots.

What we have here is Shakespeare filtered through energetic prog-funk and rock power! The Saifam reissue preserves the original's ambitious scope - combining violin, flute, keyboards, and orchestral elements with Pagani's distinctive compositional vision - unleashing a sonic arsenal of tight grooves, dynamic arrangements, and theatrical drama. As a musical soundtrack, the album showcases incredible variety: funky bass lines lock with progressive structures, rock energy drives dramatic peaks, and the whole thing moves with the restless creativity of a master composer working for live theater.

This isn't background music - it's full-throttle progressive composition with the dramatic range and musical variety demanded by musical theater. Funk meets prog, rock energy drives the narrative, and Pagani's compositional mastery shines through every groove.

Saifam presents this exclusive reissue: 180-gram black vinyl, strictly limited and numbered to 300 copies
