Italian Intermezzo is a different kind of outing for jazz guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli. The songs come from Italian folk music and the opera, and Ken Peplowski co-leads this sextet with him. The album was marketed as part of a dinner music series, and is supposed to be optimal for playing during an authentic Italian meal.
