Cycles

Record Label: Almendra Music

A refined and emotional journey within the piano: Almendra Music published album and scores of the Sicilian pianist: between sound meditation, resolved complexity, echoes of Bill Evans and Ligeti, and ‘handmade elettronics’.

The pianist describes the genesis of his work as follows:

«A single sound, central, unique, granitic, materialized into an unfathomable verticality. A sort of obelisk with elliptical contours, always moving and impossible to perceive in their finitude…»
