Achille Succi - Shiva's Dance (2003)

Most readers, if the name Achille Succi means anything to them at all, might recognize it from two albums led by guitarist Samo Salamon, Kei's Secret and Ornethology, and another led by drummer Jaka Berger, BRGS Time.
Succi is largely self-taught, and it shows in his fearlessness, spontaneity and by having a style that is modern, quite personal and not tied down to any one style. He is free enough to play anything and yet always maintains a sense of structure on both the small and large scale, thus remaining accessible.
In that he plays multiple reeds (alto saxophone, bass clarinet and clarinet), Succi might be likened to an Italianate incarnation of saxophonist Gebhard Ullmann: in his wide-ranging musical curiosity and in projects that have an enticing freedom about them but which are coupled with lyricism.
