Born in Forlì (Italy) in 1951, Riccardo Zappa is widely recognized as the greatest Italian acoustic guitarist. For five consecutive years he was voted the best in the poll promoted by the famous monthly magazine "Guitar Club". After that, he was declared to be no longer eligible for nomination. His music is in fact quite unique in the whole Italian prog scene; not can many other comparisons be found outside Italy, except perhaps Mike Oldfield, for his long, acoustic-based instrumental compositions.
His unmistakable trademark is the "Ovation" guitar, an instrument with a striking nasal sound, very suited to being handled with special effects. His first work, "Auhlela & Zappa" was recorded in 1974 as a duo, with lyrics and vocals by Klaus Auhlela and music by Riccardo Zappa himself. After three years of silence, he began his solo career with the album "Celestion" (1977), where the combination between classical (acoustic) and modern (electronic) influences is clearly evident. To this day, it is still considered his best work. In 1978 he released "Chatka", in a very similar vein, with its remarkable, famous opener "Emphasis" which was inspired by the work of 16th-century' lutanist, Juan Maria Da Crema. "Chatka" soon became very popular in Italy, and is still one of the most successful instrumental albums ever released, featuring one of the first examples of "tapping" on an acoustic guitar. Both these solo albums were recorded in Zappa' own home-recording studio, named "La Camera Incantata" (The Enchanted Chamber).
