LENOCI _ MAGLIOCCHI _ ZINGARO
S E R E N D I P I T Y
Like children with a precious thing in their hands, the trio dangerously manages the sound developments with a great sensitivity and brave directions.
The attention to quality and drama of what is taking shape under their playing seems to get back in a sort of reflection, a surprising discovery of an unespected beauty.
Recorded live at 2007 Bari jazz festival here is an excellent and vivid performance.
The free violin legend Carlos Zingaro along with the subtleness of Gianni Lenoci ‘s touch on and in the piano and the colourful energetic percussion of Marcello Magliocchi deliver a fresh, deep, sometimes joyous music.

dancing with the space around.
