Remo Anzovino’s new album is a masterpiece of imagination and communication, establishing him as a consummate performer of instrumental music. Produced by Japanese sound designer Taketo Gohara (Capossela, Baustelle, Verdena), with arrangements by Stefano Nanni (Pavarotti & Friends, Elisa), the album is composed of short musical pieces with simple and direct melodies. Anzovino’s piano is accompanied by internationally acclaimed artists, such as leading musicians of Milan’s La Scala Orchestra, some of the best sessionmen of today’s rock and avant-garde scenes, as well as true gems of the Italian jazz world. The last track on this album is “9 ottobre 1963 (Suite for Vajont)”, a short suite written for men’s choir (composed of 42 male voices) and piano, dedicated to the memory of the Vajont disaster in which 1910 people lost their lives. A strongly expressive and emotional piece that has no precedents. The cover photo is by Oliviero Toscani, one of the most famous photographers and communications experts of all times, and a great admirer of this artist.
