Elevation - Francesco Schepisi

Description

Pianist Francesco Schepisi offers us an album of high artistic quality, supported by a first-rate group, further enriched by the presence, on certain tracks, of the great trumpeter and flugelhorn player Michael Rodriguez, a Grammy winner alongside Chick Corea. Incisive and evocative melodies unfold through Mediterranean landscapes and impressionist touches, carried by powerful improvisational surges characteristic of resolutely contemporary jazz. An excellent recording, combined with remarkable instrumental diversity, brings added value that will appeal to the most demanding audiophiles. Listening to this album thus becomes an experience of rare aesthetic pleasure.
