Enrico Pieranunzi is continuing the collaboration with Bert Joris for their second album together on Challenge. All tracks composed by Enrico Pieranunzi, arrangements by Bert Joris.

Originally composed by Ennio Morricone for the 1971 film Sacco and Vanzetti, the music of this 1970s masterpiece is rearranged by the jazz quartet in an original and modern version thanks to the almost hip-hop modal and rhythmic sounds in the central part. The suite ends with the famous Here's to you, which became famous thanks to the contribution of Joan Baez who wrote the text as a hymn to freedom and freely inspired by Vanzetti's statements in prison.
