Description
The Strade project's objective is to experiment with shamelessly heterogeneous sounds, from different geographical latitudes and musical genres. The idea basically is to tell stories, because the tracks are constructed as narratives in the making.
The trio is made up of Giovanni Ferri, an artist who works in theatre, visual arts and performs alto sax in a number of different improvisational contexts, realising projects in Italy and Japan.
Mirco Ballabene plays with different improvisation and jazz ensembles. In 2011 he recorded the album 'Vìreo' for the label Aktivraum that featured Markus Stockhausen. In 2015 SLAM Productions released the first Triologos album, 'Traces of Chants', a project with Paolo and Bruno Cerboni Bajardi. In 2015 he played in Anthony Braxton's Sonic Genome in Turin. He studied with Silvia Bolognesi, Stefano Battaglia, Matt Brewer and Matt Mitchell.
Mirco Bindelli began playing drums in 1992 at the age of 14 years as a self-taught , later began studying with Maestro Adriano Pedini, which , over seven years he faces different stylistic genres and explores the jazz improvisation technique. From 2000 to 2010 took part in seminars and master classes with the drummer Massimo Manzi, Hellas Bandini, Carl Palmer, Jan Paice, Paul Motian, Peter Erskine and Horacio " El Negro " Hernandez.
Personnel: Giovanni Ferri (alto saxophone), Mirco Ballabene (double bass, electronics), Mirco Bindelli (drums, percussions)
