  • Description

    Following their selection of jazz standards on 'Live at the Metropolitan, NYC' (SLAMCD545), guitarist Giancarlo Mazzu and pianist Luciano Troja return with a selection of their original compositions on this their third album for SLAM.

    The programme of ten originals represents a sort of travelogue on the musicians' experiences playing together over ten years, during which time they have actually produced eight CDs in duo, trio and quartet formats; a dedication to places, people and impressions that have inspired Giancarlo and Luciano over the years.



    The music shows a true love for the jazz tradition, the spontaneous compositions, the song form and the blues; track 4, "Qui" pays homage to their roots in Southern Italy.



    Personnel: Giancarlo Mazzù (guitar), Luciano Troja (piano)
