‘Melting’’ evokes uplifting and serene landscapes as the soothing melody flows across each bar; growing and shrinking at the most fitting moments allowing the listener with space to breathe. One can’t help but notice a similar listening experience to that of Debussy’s iconic ‘Clair De Lune’ as ‘Melting’s romantic and vivacious harmonies conjures a smile on your face. Violins, brass sections and Cartosio’s signature piano are all elements that bring this composition together, showcasing yet again that he is bringing classical music into the 21st Century.  Speaking about this track, Lyz Cooper from The British Academy of Sound Therapy said “This piece is uplifting and enables the spirit to soar. If you’re listening to it while in a relationship, it can encourage feelings of love“.

Commenting on this experience, Cartosio said, “It was so beautiful as if I was in some amazingly beautiful movie. Only Sorrentino could’ve shot such a film. I remember looking at the Roman girl and hearing how she sounded. My charming companion became a melody herself. Because of this enormous beauty, which she gave me, for the first time in my life did I understand what it means when you’re melting. So this music composition is my gratitude for the la Grande bellezza – to Rome and to the beautiful Roman girl.”
