Kekko Fornarelli (piano/synth); Giorgio Vendola (bass); Dario Congedo (drums). Roberto Cherillo (vocal on one track).
An interesting album of originals by Italian pianist/composer Kekko Fornarelli. An explorative player, Fornarelli reflects, probes, reaches inside the structure of the piece to tell a story - a song without words. The themes cover landscapes from a train; the Platone myth of people cut in two; a love story; a line from Waiting For Godot; a tree about to be cut down and carried to a sawmill; becoming concious that all is defective: mass media, politics, art, relationships; Also an actual song with words sung by Roberto Cherillo. It's a dreamlike conversation between the real ego and a Utopian one.
As you will gather this isn't a Saturday night party disc but one to be listened to on your own or with a like minded soulmate.. perhaps adding your own dialogue to the images the music conjures up.
Alternatively, you could simply treat it as a close knit piano trio disc with some captivating themes, logical improvisations and all hands to the pump (or is it shoulders to the grindstone? Maybe both.)
Outrush is now available on abeat records.
