Italy Memories.......2007-04-02

The music of Al Frabrizo's mandolin is awesome. Takes me back to Italy and the quaint cafes.

The Italian Music Our Grandparents Would Have Played.......2005-06-07

When I passed by Al Fabrizio playing at a local art and wine festival a couple of years ago, I stopped dead in my tracks. It was as if he had instantly transported me back in time about 30 years to the home of my grandparents, who played just that kind of music. Scenes of hot summer days, Grandma's Italian cooking, and happiness filled my memory. I bought both of his albums without hearing another song and I was not disappointed. I'll buy the next one too!

Pure Joy!.......2003-01-11

The beauty of this CD brought tears to my eyes! How wondeful. I am sure others who enjoy and appreciate true classic Italian Mandolin music will agree!

Fabulous.......2007-04-02

Al Fabrizio is the real deal. His suberb mandolin playing makes you feel like you are in Italy. Very relaxing. I like the fact that it is all instrumental.

Serenata Italiana.......2000-11-04

Even though I was born in the US and in the 50's, this CD takes me back to the old country. Married to an Italian and being Portuguese, this CD brings me closer to my roots.

I have played it for many friends and families and end up either ordering copies for them or giving them mine. Over the last year I probably have ordered 20.

It is great for family reunions and background music for weddings.

Italian romanticism in a unique CD........1999-09-26

Italian popular music always brings romantic memories to our hearts. Al Fabrizio's mandolin is like the sunshine of Italy to our imagination.

For old-time romance, it can't get better than this!.......1999-05-07

Changed my entire attitude and disposition on life in a single playing, it was that smooth! After so much modern stuff, these two guys are a breath of fresh air!
