Intimate – Recordings at Abbey Road Studios is the seventh official greatest hits compilation by the Italian singer Elisa, released by Universal Music Group on 8 December 2023.[1]

The recording project included the rearrangement and vocal re-modeling of several songs from the singer-songwriter's discography, as well as the inclusion of Christmas music tracks, including a cover of Silent night and two previously unreleased tracks "Quando nevica" and "Buon Natale anche a te".[2]

Background

After the release of the eleventh studio album Ritorno al futuro/Back to the Future and the related live album Back to the Future Live, taken from the promotional tour, between December 2022 and January 2023 Elisa embarked on An Intimate Night, a tour held exclusively in theaters and featuring Italian musician and producer Dardust as an artistic collaborator and guest on all dates, revisiting songs from the singer-songwriter's discography.[3] [4] On June 3 and 4, 2023, she performed An Intimate Arena at the Arena di Verona, which took over the format of An Intimate Night and continued the artistic partnership with Dardust.[5] In September 2023, she announced An Intimate Christmas, a double show at the Mediolanum Forum in Milan in collaboration with Dardust on December 15 and 16, 2023.[6]

Composition

The recording project, produced entirely by Dardust, was recorded at London's Abbey Road Studios in the summer of 2023 with a live orchestra.[7] [8] Elisa said that she drew inspiration in the making of the project from the An Intimate Night tour, both from the point of view of recorded sounds and in the use of the singer's own vocals.[9] [10] Through her own social networks, the singer explained the recording process and the work with Dardust:[11]
