Cremona is a studio album by Italian singer Mina, released on 18 September 1996 by PDU.

Overview

For the first time in almost twenty years, the singer released an album consisting of only one disc; previously, Mina's albums were released in two parts: the first consisted of cover versions, and the second contained original tracks, this album consists entirely of new songs. The name of the album Cremona is a reference to the city of Cremona, where the singer spent her childhood. When making the album, photos of Mina in a Versace outfit posing against the background of night Cremona were used.[1]

The album received positive reviews from critics, who praised the atmosphere, the successful mixing of styles and genres, the lyrics and of course Mina's vocal abilities.[2][3][4][5] The album also reached the second position in the weekly album chart of Italy and stayed there for 19 weeks.[6] Sales of the album exceeded 500 thousand copies.[7]

In the same year, the album was reissued in a deluxe edition of Natale 1996, which also included the album Napoli.
