Elvis Costello vuelve al rock con The Delivery Man


Juan Jose Mateo Ruiz-Galvez

Elvis Costello vuelve al rock con The Delivery Man (Lost Highway Records), "una vuelta al mejor Costello, el de los años ochenta", que se publicará el próximo 20 de septiembre. "Este disco es muy distinto a North, su anterior álbum, que era más lento e instrumental", avisan en su discográfica. El cantante y compositor incorpora el country en The delivery man con la ayuda de grandes intérpretes como Lucinda Williams, Johnny Cash, Ryan Adams o Willie Nelson. Costello también lanzará el 20 de septiembre Il sogno (Deutsche Grammophon), un disco que recoge la música con la que el ballet Aterballetto de Reggio Emilia bailará su adaptación de El sueño de una noche de verano, de William Shakespeare. "Hay mucho jazz en esta obra, así como sonidos rusos o impresionistas. Ha imaginado a los personajes como si vinieran del pop, del jazz o del clásico. Usa inusuales armonías al estilo de Debussy", explica Michael Tilson Thomas, director de la Orquesta Sinfónica de Londres, que toca la obra. Costello no presume. "Mis orquestaciones quizá no obedezcan a ciertas convenciones. He aprendido escuchando. Simplemente, uso el sentido común y escribo lo que quiero oír. No finjo saber más de lo que sé", explica.
