    Note

    "Ich habe ein Programm für Klarinette und Cello komponiert – eine farbenreiche Kombination, die zwei unterschiedliche Instrumentenfamilien vereint. Mit Karolina habe ich die ideale Musikerin gefunden, die mit Leichtigkeit zwischen komponierter Musik und Improvisation wechselt."

    Die Farbpalette dieser Besetzung ist enorm – mal intim, mal orchestral, immer überraschend. Beide Musiker schöpfen aus Jazz, Klassik, World und Minimal Music und lassen Improvisation und Notentext zu einer homogenen Einheit verschmelzen. Ein weiteres unerhörtes Beispiel des europäischen Jazz – Jazz im Sinne offener Musik.

    Second album released by Santilli’s CheRoba & il Fiato delle Alpi: Sujazzstiva

    It goes without saying that the sound quality is fantastic – thanks to the professional work of Moritz Wetter at the Hardstudios Winterthur. Markus Heuer’s photography showing the suggestive gaze of an owl is captivating. Its large round eyes reveal a sense of wisdom and mystery. The owl fixes its gaze on you exuding an aura of profound concentration, as if it’s seeing beyond the surface into the very essence of you. Follow this penetrating gaze it is a unique connection to the nocturnal world the owls inhabit: S U J A Z Z S T I V A

    Together with the CD you’ll find the album booklet – it is a companion to make you better connect to the music. Sujazzstiva draws inspiration from captivating legends of the Canton Ticino. Stories like “Curéija du drèisc” (The Dragon of Lago Retico) tell of a fearsome dragon and the miraculous intervention of saints. “Cose svizzere notturne segrete” (The Hunchbacks of Piumogna) narrates the tale of dwarves and the transformation of hunchbacks. Other fascinating legends, like “Ave Maria” (Madonna della Neve) and “Viaggio al sabba” (Three hours to go, three hours there, three hours back), add depth and intrigue to the musical journey. Each piece weaves the essence of these timeless stories into a mesmerizing musical experience.

    Second album release by Ivan Tibolla & Marco Santilli: CheRoba in due

    The picture – a table, two empty chairs… evocation of an absence, of a void calling out to be filled. Isn’t music also telling us about that void, about the dignity with which left-over objects can still talk to us?
