Donna: An Homage to Women

Fone is happy to announce the launch of Donna. Every track, ranging from Jazz to Classical and Pop, has been selected to tell, celebrate and pay homage to the universe of women, with their strength, beauty and complexity. This special collection will be presented on the occasion of Women’s Day, during the Gran Gala Festival in Rome on March 8-9, 2025 at the Sheraton Parco de’ Medi,

All the tracks on this album are heard as they were performed. The DSD Download was created by transferring the original analogue master recorded on an Ampex ATR-102 Tape Recorder at 2 tracks 1/2 inch 30ips tape that was modified by David Manley. The mastering for the DSD Download was done by Giulio Cesare Ricci using the analog and valve Signoricci system.
