Concerto per Margherita
The 3444th greatest album of all time
Concerto per Margherita (1976) finds Riccardo Cocciante working in melodic pop and soft rock territory, built around piano-led arrangements, sweeping strings and expressive vocal delivery. The record emphasizes romantic balladry with moments of fuller rock instrumentation and dramatic crescendos. Its title track, "Margherita", stands out as a focal point and the album is often associated with Cocciante's signature lyrical, orchestral pop style.
