After three years of work, here finally is “Change”, a work which represents the idea of evolution of a human being. The complexity of growing and finding a solid place in a modern and chaotic society through a musical novel rich of several influences.

From electronic music to traditional jazz, from modern vanguardes to experimental rock, “Change” is a multiform texture of sounds and voices with a solid focus to her majesty the melody and songform. 

From be-bop to electronic music, from modal jazz to 90's rock.

 

 

with:

Massimiliano Milesi on tenor sax, Giacomo Papetti on bass, and Alessandro Rossi on drums
