about

L'iridescente arte di Franco e' un poliedro tendente alla sfera.
L'oceanica immensita' della sua costante ricerca di un linguaggio personale all'interno della tradizione jazzistica trova in questa quasi-ora di musica in piano solo una rappresentazione adamantina. Una straordinaria panoramica sul suo pensiero musicale, libero da manierismi di sorta e costantemente alla ricerca di un'espressivita' autentica e profonda. Musica di una caparbieta' gentile, appuntita, magmatica, scattante e raffinata. Travolgente e coerente allo stesso tempo. Mirabilmente in bilico tra Apollo e Dioniso. Intensamente personale, completamente jazz. In un'epoca in cui nella maggior parte dei casi si maneggiano forme, estetica e arte con i guanti dell'anatomopatologo a proteggersi dalla formalina, fischiettando come belle (?) lavanderine, Franco e la sua musica sono una delle luci piu' forti in una notte buia. Un faro da seguire per superare un mare scuro e viscoso in bonaccia. Franco e' il mio guru. Grazie Franco!

This is such a special album to me. The music is so intimate, beautiful and emotional without being self indulgent or formulaic. It's extremely expressive, taking the listener on a voyage. giodude1982
