Opis wydawcy:
Trio Giovanniego Guidi gra wyjątkowo oryginalny jazz o refleksyjnej głębi. Na ich drugim albumie dla wytwórni ECM, włoski pianista Guidi, angielski kontrabasista Morgan i portugalski perkusista Lobo muzycznie kontynuują kierunek , który zapoczątkował nagrany w 2013 album City of Broken Dreams. Każdy z wykonawców ma silne wyczucie dialektyki dźwięku i ciszy. Ich repertuar składa się głównie z kompozycji Guida, ale zawiera także standard “I’m Through with Love”, kompozycję kubańskiego piosenko-pisarza Osvaldo Farrésa “Quizás, quizás, quizás” (znaną miłośnikom jazzu, głównie w wersji Nata Kinga Cole’a) oraz kompozycję “Baiiia” Joao Lobo.

Editor's info:
Giovanni Guidi is, for sure, one of the most convincing and amazing artists that belong to the current italian and international jazz scene.
In this project he is the leader of a Trio composed by young, but very esperienced, musicians: Thomas Morgan and Joao Lobo. Guidi recorded with them “ City Of broken Dreams” cd in 2013 and “ This Is The Day”, cd that will be out the next 20th of march. Both of the albums are by “ECM”.
Thomas Morgan was the favourite Paul Motian’s bassist in the latest period of his life. He collaborated with lots of international artists, just like, Steve Coleman, John Abercrombie, Mark Feldman, Craig Taborn Jim Black, Tomasz Stanko and David Virelles.
Joao Lobo is, instead, one of the most esteemed drummers of the present scene, and he is considered one of the european most interesting musicians of these latest years.
Both of them met Giovanni on their way on success. Morgan was by is side in his quintets and Lobo played with him in his quartet and in the “UNKNOWN REBEL BAND”. All these projects became cd recorded by CAM JAZZ.
Giovanni Guidi’s Trio will by on tour by next march, after the “This is the day” album issue. Its protagonists are open-minded, extroverted and their musical texture creates several atmospheres and suggestions that, in spite of everething, don’t forget the melodic way of thinking and the extreme lyricism that are important aspects of Giovanni Guidi’s artistic personality.
