Music rules the world!

About Me

I am a singer-songwriter & classically trained pianist. The songs you'll hear on my profile are part of my EP "Bittersweet", acoustic style.
And just to give you a flavour of what to expect read on what Jason, from All FM 96.6 Manchester, said of my music after playing it on the breakfast show last Nov:
It really doesn’t get much more beautiful than that. That was "Because Almost Isn't Good Enough" by Consuelo, originally born in Milan, moved to Manchester, where she graduated in popular music and recording, now she has moved down to Cornwall to record her album, absolutely fantastic stuff from the EP Bittersweet.
This review came recently form www.thisiscornwall.co.uk :
Connie's talent is emotive singing-songwriting that could transcend the bridge between Radio 2 and Classic FM. You can imagine the songs on her six-track EP, Bittersweet, getting the full widescreen production job with strings et al.
And this is what some critics have written following this review:There is a depth to Connie's style of writing, and an originality that you don't come across everyday. I find her sound refreshing and very interesting and I look forward to hearing more of her music in the future. Opus Melodi, UK
I first saw Connie perform at the acorn theatre where i and a friend were on the same bill. The first thing that struck me about Connie was the honesty and originality behind her songwriting, i cant wait to hear a lot more from her in the future. Robbie Pert, Cheltenham
Connie is brilliant and I love her music. I know for sure she is loved by lots of fans - her composition talent unique creativity is a huge inspiration for tomorrow's music world. She is hard-working, very committed and it has been a pleasure to share her musical talent for the many years I've known her. Caroline Sexton, Manchester

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 2/23/2005
Band Website: myspace.com/conniescivoletto
Band Members: The lovely Me Myself & I (for now)...
Influences: These go from Chopin, Debussy & Lizt to film music, The Beach Boys, The Doors, Supertramp, Madonna, Britney Spears (The Matrix and The Neptunes), Joni Mitchel, Tori Amos, Air, Bjork, Martha & Rufus Wainwright, Vanessa Carlton, Keane, Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, Alanis Morissette, and many more...all for different reasons going from piano style of playing, to harmony, song structure and arrangement, vocal style and production.
Sounds Like: In my humble opinion: The angry edge of Alanis Morissette, the piano sweetness of Tori Amos, the rocky attitude of Vanessa Carlton, and the quirkness of Bjork ;)
According to www.247mag.co.uk 's December review of my EP:
"From Milan to Manchester to Penzance, singer/songwriter CONSUELO Scivoletto has pursued her musical ambitions with admirable determination. The Bittersweet EP is her first endeavour into the public domain, showcasing six stark yet effective, piano-driven songs of melancholy and hope steeped in classical, folk and pop leanings. The likes of Keep It 4 Yourself reveal a rich, textured voice with echoes of female luminaries such as Liz Fraser, Dolores O'Riordan and Alanis Morissette, but it's Consuelo's strong Spanish (argh, got that wrong...i'm Italian!!) accent that lends a unique flavour and power to the songs. It seems as if all the hard work and travelling is paying off. Kudos to you." BB
