personnel :

Mauro Orselli - percussion, water, radio

Antonello Salis - piano, accordeon

A classic of '90s avant garde jazz, True Live Walnuts features Italian percussionist Mauro Orselli joined by British saxophonist Evan Parker and keyboardist Antonello Salis for some of the most fascinating free music of recent years. Performing just two pieces live at the Europa Jazz Festival in Noci, Italy, the three bring about an extraordinary union of disparate voices in a coherent whole. Orselli is stupendous on percussion, where he interacts with Parker as a second horn. The percussionist also chimes in with water sounds from a bucket, as well as radio waves. Salis can be ferocious on piano, but he is just as compelling on accordion, where he gets equal time. Parker seems to enjoy the company, and on both soprano and tenor saxophones he is in top form. The near hour of recording time whizzes by, as the diversity, skill and joyous disregard of convention are irresistible.~Steve Loewy
