A meeting of four of the greatest talents that Italian jazz has expressed in the last 15 years. This is Reverse Motion, the new album by Alessandro Lanzoni, to be released on 26 July by Jam/Unjam (Universal distribution). The album will be preceded by the pianist's signature track Mad Bog on 19 July. The album is recorded with the trio composed of Matteo Bortone on double bass and Enrico Morello on drums, a line-up that has been accompanying Lanzoni for 12 years after the three had met at Siena Jazz during the International jazz master's experience, with special guest Francesco Cafiso on alto sax. The understanding cemented by Lanzoni's trio over these years is so profound that the 9 previously unreleased tracks, composed mainly by the Tuscan pianist but with contributions from the other musicians, despite their extremely different compositional styles converge in the same direction with a surprising coherence and amalgam of sound.

The collaboration with Cafiso is more recent even though the two musicians have known and esteemed each other for many years. The pianist and saxophonist also share a very similar parallel path; both started playing at a very young age and over the years have kept the promises they showed from the very beginning. After their first meeting at the Massimo Urbani award, their paths crossed occasionally and without continuity until just over a year ago Lanzoni decided to call Cafiso for a series of concerts. After two successful tours, the four decided to enter the recording studio to record Reverse Motion. The strong understanding between the four and the naturalness with which they approach each piece is exemplified in one of the possible meanings of the album's title: to make extremely complex and articulate music, such as the pieces on Reverse Motion, sound immediate and natural.
