Bonne Nuit comes from the ancient love of Diego Baiardi, pianist, arranger and composer for all the music and songs of the folk tradition composed to take the children to sleep. For years, the pianist dedicated to the research and adaptation of precious examples of this form of musical expression taken from the immense repertoire of lullabies from around the world.

The project Aquilarco was born in 1998, commissioned by the label Point Music and of its artistic director Philip Glass, who defined Sollima: “a fresh exciting talent on the new music scene”. After the closing of Point, the album wasn’t distribuited anymore, but Sollima today has the idea of recovering a live recording of which he was especially satisfied.
