Dice bene Umberto Eco, nelle note di questo ultimo lavoro della premiata coppia Trovesi-Coscia: Frère Jacques.

Enrico Rava: To Be Free or Not To Be Free
by Ian Patterson
Freedom, it could be argued, is most deeply understood by those who have been somehow constrained against their will, or who have been prisoners of their own skewed vision of what it means to be free.

Gianluigi Trovesi / Gianni Coscia: Frere Jacques - Round About Offenbach
by Hrayr Attarian
On their third duet album, the second dedicated to a single composer, clarinetist Gianluigi Trovesi and accordionist Gianni Coscia use original compositions as launching pads for their improvisational forays.

Gianluigi Trovesi / Gianni Coscia: Frere Jacques - Round About Offenbach
by John Kelman
Once again, more than half a decade has gone by since clarinetist GIanluigi Trovesi and accordionist Gianni Coscia last recorded. Round About Weill (ECM, 2005) represented a shift away from the broader compositional purview of In cerca di cibo (ECM, 2000), instead focusing more monolithically--albeit with the improvisational élan which has defined this partnership from its ...
