The arrangement are by Pasquale Bardaro. The tales of "Cabaret Noir" are haunted by paradoxical visions: A collection of melancholic, moody reflections that seem to find their ideology in a film noir... Mellow and sensuous stories but surrealistic and ironic at the same time. Cabaret Noir's atmosphere is an evocative sequence of soundscapes: almost an imaginary soundtrack that has it's roots in jazz.
