Jason Kao Hwang: Burning Bridge

Read "Burning Bridge" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Burning Bridge non è un ponte che si sta consumando tra le fiamme di un fuoco distruttore. Al contrario, il ponte di cui si parla nel titolo di questo bel disco arde in senso metaforico; le fiamme hanno potere taumaturgico, alimentano pathos e vitalità.
