Perle (2004)

"Backed by a string quartet, Gianna Nannini's 18th album, Perle, sees the Italian singer/songwriter perform new interpretations of some of her biggest hits. Produced by Christian Lohr, the 2004 album features 13 re-workings of tracks taken from her 30-year career, including material from 1979's "California", her 1986 breakthrough, "Profumo", and her 2002 effort "Aria"."
