From the liner notes by Lorenzo Regazzo: “[...] For this selection of Venetian songs I have sought to favour models of undeniable musical importance and with eloquent texts. I have excluded a priori the repertory of the extra-Lagoon Venetian area : a vast and equally praiseworthy repertory, but one which deserves an independent exhaustive treatment. I cannot deny that I have chosen some pieces for purely affective reasons, precisely because they are capable of evoking exactly the shapes of the city that I have always known and which I love, and of repeating frankly the proud prerogatives of a certain “venezianità”, which I find today unchanged in the characteristics of Venetian people, in spite of fashions and differences between generations [...]”.
