Reverie is a prog folk project from Italy, led by composer and guitarist Valerio Vado, who had appeared on albums by Italian bands Lethe and The Watch. Valerio defines the Reverie sound as ethno-progressive, with ancient Mediterranean and European influences informing a modern sensibility. The instrumentation sets the project apart from the norm, with winds, guitars, mandolin, cello, piano, percussions) and electronics (keyboards, effects), while the lyrics sample from masters like Shakespeare, Pasolini, and contemporary poets, in languages as diverse as Italian, English, and, in their most recent production, Esperanto. Valerio's collaborators include professionals working in both music and theatre as composers, session musicians, actors, and teachers.
Songs by Reverie have been used as soundtracks by directors, music therapists, and private and public Boards such as the Chamber of Commerce of Milano.
