Notes

JAZZ: original compositions by: Pietro Ballestrero, Aldo Mella, Paolo Franciscone, Danilo Pala. P. Ballestrero original guitar; D. Pala alto sax; P. Franciscone drums.
24bit/88.2kHz original recording made strictly-live-in-studio (with no digital editing) at Areamagister Recording Studios, Preganziol (Italy) on October 2008.

New compositions by Pietro Ballestrero, a track by Aldo Mella - bassist with whom the trio collaborated for a period - and a couple of improvisations flow lightly in this CD, immediately impressing melodies with a strong Mediterranean character. With essential arrangements, the music creates space for Franciscone's intense rhythmic interplay and Danilo Pala's always exuberant and imaginative phrasing, all blended by the harmonies and arpeggios of the guitar, which cleverly avoid the risk of emptiness due to the absence of the double bass. The result is a design characterized by vivid colors, spaces, and dynamics, where the profound emotional research and the effort to approach the most visceral aspects of playing correspond to the intent to find maximum communication with the listener.
