Italian term or phrase: bagaglio
"[*], infatti, pur mantenendo inalterati i tratti peculiari del proprio *bagaglio* tecnico ed espressivo e riservandosi un approccio ai testi e alla musica sempre originale e moderno, non esita a prendere spunto dalle scelte interpretative dei suoi modelli e rielaborarle in chiave personale."
So cosa significa, ma non riesco a trovare una traduzione adeguata in inglese. Certamente non si tratta di "baggage".

awareness


Explanation:
Awareness is the state or ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of events, objects or sensory patterns. In this level of consciousness, sense data can be confirmed by an observer without necessarily implying understanding. More broadly, it is the state or quality of being aware of something. In biological psychology, awareness is defined as a human's or an animal's perception and cognitive reaction to a condition or event
