From Brecht to Steve Lacy and Mal Waldron , through the Sephardic traditions , Charles Baudelaire , Nina Simone , Rabih Abou Khalil , Aaron Copland and Emily Dickinson and, of course , a couple of original songs signed by Fabrizio Puglisi and Cristiano Calcagno .
The voice of Gaia Mattiuzzi leads the listener through Laut in so many ways of understanding music search , to want to use a single definition. Search understood according to the various possible meanings : experimental synthesis of roots and different references , creativity, recovery setting to opera singing , drama , sound combinations . The course is supported with great properties and the presence of two musicians as Fabrizio Puglisi and Cristiano Calcagno able to find effective solutions in response to changes in voice and expression to the different contexts . In two passages , moreover, the bass Stefano Senni adds to the trio - ie Morenika , revived recently by Avishai Cohen, Steve Lacy and Prospectus .
The choice of a sparse dimension because it is able to cover in a comprehensive manner the sound spectrum , allows the three musicians to move with great agility in different terrains crossed with the result that operate on separate planes to look for connections between the lines as well as having to meet the roles prebuilt tools . And then , song after song , alternate solutions aimed to play in a concrete manner as required by the score and programmatic intentions : unison between voice and piano; layers of sound electronics prepared piano and percussion ; strict structures and informal situations .
Laut plays in a manner consistent with the idea of provoking a reaction between the materials squad and the disc is the need on the part of Mattiuzzi , Puglisi and Calcagnile to see what happens to the points of departure once mixed and matched and compared with their experiences. In this sense, the three do not care about consistency punctual, where in practice each step is derived strictly from the previous one , but point to the overall package to make the game stand out among the many Contasti of "weave" side by side in the mosaic .
