Elevation
Our rating, out of 100 — and why.
AI-generated from five scored dimensions. An opinion, not a measurement.
Milva’s commanding vocal presence and carefully made arrangements give the songs weight, though the closing return to earlier Battiato material loosens the album’s shape.
What we noticed
- The ten-track sequence closes with “No time no space” and “Centro di gravità permanente,” both older Battiato songs, after the album’s newer material.
- Milva sings throughout; the arrangements frame her dramatic, sustained vocal delivery rather than making this an instrumental jazz set.
- The final pair revisits Battiato’s earlier catalogue, so the ending feels more like a coda of familiar material than a continuation of the album’s central run.

Known within its scene. Reported but not counted — how far a record travelled describes its reception rather than the record, and a newer release has had less time to travel than an older one.
