Description

Four years after releasing their last album, Pericopes+1 return with an inventive new concept album of futuristic reflections on the present: 'Good Morning World'. The 2024 release celebrates ten years of touring for this acclaimed Italian sax/piano/drums project whose style described as "powerhouse crossover jazz" by the international press.
Over the years this power-trio has performed hundreds of concerts across Europe and the US, including the UK where they performed at the Gateshead Int'l Jazz Festival. Their performance debut was acclaimed by jazz masters Dave Liebman and Enrico Ravaand sighted in the prestigious Italian jazz history book 'La Storia del Jazz' as one of the most important and unique new-generation bands of the last few years. In 2023 Pericopes+1 was also nominated as 'Best Band of the Year' by Italian magazine, Musica Jazz. 'Good Morning World' outlines a return to Pericopes' native melodicism, in which the essentiality of lyricism is intertwined with a prismatic compositional texture, giving a spatial sense of continuous rotation. This Jazz reflects the spirit of Italian creativity - solid in its traditional academic heritage but infused with cultures and sounds that have shaped the music of the present for more than a century - including references to dodecaphonic music, European and African-American jazz, post-rock sounds, prog-rock, avantgarde, combined with melodies of popular and liturgical inspiration.
