Vito Liturri: From Beyond
ByWith a pair of simpatico band matesMarco Boccia on bass, and drummer Lello Patrunothis trio sounds, by turns energized and ruminative, building an extended storyline of music, enhanced with Lituri's deft addition of electronics after he pounds out a portentous and percussive "Prelude" to the "Four Quadruple Suite." It's a vision-expanding move, giving the sound an orchestral gravitas.
Liturri's piano remains center stage until the suite's "Interlude," a piece that has the effect of soaring into the stratosphere, electronically. "Beyond" brings back the acoustic piano on an introspective reverie that is spare and pretty at the same time.
After the suite, "The Moon, the Reverb and..." struts in on a reverberant bass solo leading into Liturri's searching piano, leading into the floating "Just a Dreamer."
From Beyond is a bold and beautiful statement, a superb piano trio effortelectronically enhanced in the middle of the disc's story arc. A compelling sound.
