A PATH THROUGH SHIFTING LANDSCAPES OF SOUND
Album presentation: Stories of Light and Dark
“Stories of Light and Dark” presents a space where silence breathes, and melody emerges like memory. With a spacious, meditative language, the trio crafts a narrative that evolves organically, always rooted in intention. Each piece is a quiet exploration, a dialogue between clarity and mystery, light and shadow—a journey that unfolds without haste, yet never strays from its course.
THE TRIO
Emanuele Pellegrini - Piano
Alessandro Fongaro - Double bass
Nick Thessalonikefs - Drums
It is a surprising combination of styles that fuels the creativity of this trio.The background in the tradition of jazz music is certainly the pivot that get things moving around, however the music that this band gives birth to each time, sounds like a contradiction to that. A "creative conflict" with Jazz is indeed deeply rooted in the soul of Emanuele, Alessandro and Nick. A conflict that manifests into the questioning every aspect of what a Jazz piano trio is expected to sound like. This process launched the band into uncharted musical territories made of dynamics and colours. A sonic expedition that invites the audience into an expressive journey through spacious landscapes, where each note unfolds a new chapter of storytelling. The trio got together in the midst of the Covid pandemics, recording their first album "Gadgets".
