Léandre - Delbecq - Houle: 14 rue Paul Forte, Paris
by Giuseppe Segala

Una voce. Tre voci. Che si accostano, si ascoltano, si mescolano, si avvinghiano. Chi ascolta resta sospeso, colpito, stupito da tale ...

I 10 CD nel CD player di... Nicola Guazzaloca
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Massimo De Mattia -Quartet Hypermodern (Rudi Records -2014). Un lavoro in cui le individualità emergono nitide ed autorevoli, ogni elemento è inserito nel processo con salda intenzione e responsabilità, con sottesa energia lungo un percorso timbricamente vario e stratificato, a snodarsi fra le geometrie evocate dal flauto di De Mattia nel pulsare di ...
