  • Description

    "Hope" is the title of the 24th album by Grammy-nominated harmonica player Fabrizio Poggi, written, conceived and recorded with the great pianist, composer, and arranger Enrico Pesce.

    In "The Shawshank Redemption" one of the protagonists says "Fear can hold you prisoner, hope can set you free" and starting from this beautiful thought Fabrizio Poggi and Enrico Pesce created a new canvas, a new play in which the directors are listeners, a blank page on which we can all write our own story and a piece of clay we can shape according to the emotions this work of art will inspire. Fabrizio Poggi and Enrico Pesce walk down the path traced by Nina Simone, John Lewis of the Modern Jazz Quartet, Oscar Peterson, and Keith Jarett – great artists that managed to wonderfully and surprisingly combine blues, jazz, and classical music. Enrico Pesce's piano occasionally reminds of the magnetic and evocative sound of Hosea Lee Kennard, Howlin' Wolf's amazing and underestimated pianist, while Poggi's invariably acoustic harmonica is the ancient yet modern red thread that connects the Mississippi blues with the vibes of the contemporary world.
