"Festa Mobile stands out mostly because of their keyboardist, who plays some of the quirkiest piano melodies I've
heard in prog. 1973's Diarro Di Viaggio Della Festa Mobile is this band's only album, but a few of the musicians
later emerged as Baricentro. Diarro... is quite a unique album. While the music gets frantic once in a while, there
are plenty of beautiful moments to be found as the album unfolds. Their guitarist offers some very tasty
Fripp-influenced riffs and he does a good job balancing the quirky piano lines. My only complaint is that most of the
songs have traditional song-structures. The band confidently builds to what might seem like a climatic section, but
instead choose to go back to an earlier verse or chorus. The tracks also tend to fade out just when the band starts
cooking. Overall, though, Festa Mobile are definitely worth searching out."
