Christmas News is festive big band jazz at full swing: a bright, up-tempo arrangement with clarinet in the spotlight, blazing horns, and a playful Latin-flavoured interlude.
The song tells the story of Rico Cafone, a fictional outlaw hero from the 1930s–40s — a charming Italian-American who steals jewels at elegant ballroom parties, only to give them away to poor children. A Christmas tale with groove, humour, and a touch of vintage glamour.
Produced, arranged, composed, and performed by Marco Santilli Rossi.
