In recent years, a number of Italian vocal groups, partly out of maturity, partly by choice, have realised the importance of breaking away from the professionals from beyond the Alps, offering their own elaborations or original songs. One of these is the vocal quintet 'Mezzo Sotto' from Celle Ligure, who proposed two original songs on their first album 'Half Below': 'Anti lullaby' and 'Winter'. The approval of the public, always willing to listen to novelties, induced Fabio Alessi to write and record, in the album "Incanto", the song "Mezzo Blues" and to propose, as an elaborator, a really valuable harmonisation of "Crystal Spring", a popular song of Anglo-Saxon origin. The song published here, Winter, with lyrics in English by Barbara Aramini, is particularly evocative and requires a very amalgamated sound. In the accompaniment lines, the consonant "t" corresponds to an intermediate sound between "d" and "t", and must be slightly marked. In the bass line, the consonant pair "tm" should be pronounced "tum", with a very short "u". In "crescendos" (at the performers' discretion), the melodic line must always remain in the right relief.
