Waterdance
Carlo, Marcello, Tommaso and Federico light up the environment with the light and colours of the Strait of Messina. This album is the first great work dedicated to the Music of the Strait Project, and extraordinary accomplished collective that assimilates, elaborates on and fuses diverse influences and teachings. Their creative path unravels in a metaphoric labyrinth where the streets cross and-mingle to the point of finding a unique, evocative style. This album includes eight original compositions inspired by the art of Wayne Shorter, saxophonist, philosopher and guru who preserved the artistic legacy of John Coltrane. "Music - said Shorter - has an intrinsic, extramusical meaning; playing means reaching unexplored places and spaces" and WATERDANCE conveys this message to the full.
