Biography

Aisha Duo is the name for collaborations between Andrea Dulbecco (marimba) and Luca Gusella (vibraphone), Italian musicians who began working together after being in the same percussion class at the Conservatory of Milan. The aptly titled Quiet Songs, their first album for ObliqSound, contained interpretations of eight of Chick Corea's "Children's Songs," as well as Ralph Towner's "Beneath an Evening Sky," and several originals. It was recorded at a 17th century church and released in 2005. ~ Andy Kellman, All Music Guide
