О программе
Antonio Faraò has been the pianist of the moment on the contemporary European scene for quite some time now. The Rome native grew up performing in the Milan clubs and has gone on to have a career marked by collaborations with some of jazz’ most intriguing acts: Jack DeJohnette, Bob Berg and Bireli Lagrene. One of the aspects that has defined his rise has been a talent for gathering world class small ensembles. Here, in the small French commune of Ramatuelle, he plays as part of a quartet alongside the great Dave Liebman, a supreme reference point in jazz and a master tenor and soprano saxophonist, as special guest.
With Wayne Dockery (Sonny Fortune, Archie Shepp, George Benson), a legendary double bassist weaving melodic and rhythmic pathways, and American Gene Calderazzo, a drummer and beat scholar keeping time, the foundations of the quartet are as strong as can be. Liebman is front and center, delivering a huge range of sound and emotion, while Faraò offers an almost unimaginable virtuosity and delicacy on the keys. A masterclass of modern jazz.
