Kelterán riprende, con rinnovata energia e nuove idee portate da Sergio Pugnalin, un percorso musicale che si era interrotto un paio di anni fa: mi riferisco allo scioglimento definitivo del gruppo Éire Nua. In questo lavoro ci sono alcune tracce lasciate dal mio precedente lavoro con gli Eire Nua e con alcuni dei suoi componenti. Ringrazio Ciarán, Joe, Maria Luisa ed anche Bruno (da Sharadì) per aver ancora voluto, dopo quasi 17 anni, riprovarci di nuovo. Marco Giaccaria
