Anema e Core

“

Delord is the stage name of Christian Carlino. When he was in a group where they covered Deep Purple for his organ prowess he was called The Lord, named after Deep Purple keyboardist John Lord. Then the name was mangled into DeLord and he chose it as a pseudonym in his musical excursions.
For some time he has chosen Naples for his performances during the Piano City event. Until he decided to dedicate to the city and its people the reinterpretation of a song, “Anima e Core”, on the piano. He also made a great video. When he sent it to me asking for an opinion, at the end a speaker read a text but I didn't like the tone and I wrote it to him. Then he sent me another version but even that didn't convince me. So I offered to read that text you hear at the end of the video clip. He said it was perfect. I don't know if because he was really convinced or because having Red Ronnie's voice in the video was better than that of a stranger. The fact is that I am also in "Anema e Core". There are no coincidences because my love for Naples is known.

Published online “Sognare” A collection of poetry, of life lived with a musical background created in the wake of the dream sphere. Here is “Sognare”, DeLord's first publishing project that combines a book of poems and an LP with five new compositions. The initiative for the launch of the original volume is explained by the author himself: "I put four copies on 4 different trains with 4 different destinations (Rome, Milan, Turin, Lecce) to cross Italy dreaming ... therefore to create anticipation and curiosity especially on the title.

Dear Fabrizio, thank you very much for sending me the CD "Sognare" by this young composer who hides behind the pseudonym of DeLord.

Christian Carlino “DeLord” produced his first EP with songs focused on relaxing the mind, and above all it makes you nostalgic and let you dream. The title itself conveys the idea of this small work. A word to clarify everything. The piano has been his best friend for years now and this is the result. It could very well be a collection of music for the soundtrack.
