Stefano Travaglini: Book of Innocence
by Karl Ackermann
With Book of Innocence, Stefano Travaglini and Achille Succi have released an inspired recording and it is something quite beyond convention. Stefano came to my attention in 2017 with his extraordinarily wide-ranging solo album Ellipse (Notami Jazz, 2017), his first leader recording. Another outstanding solo outing came in 2020 with MonkFifteen Piano Reflections (Notami Jazz). A multi-instrumentalist and composer, Stefano's ...

Stefano Travaglini/Achille Succi: Book Of Innocence
by Dan McClenaghan
Book Of Innocence, an album from pianist Stefano Travaglini and reedist Achille Succi, opens with a tune entitled Rothko," taking inspiration from the Russian-born abstract expressionist painter Mark Rothko. The music is an edgy, frenetic romp. It sounds like a near out-of-control roll by a pair of skateboarders careening down a steep and winding mountain road, ...

Stefano Travaglini: Monk - Fifteen Piano Reflections
by Karl Ackermann
Italian composer and pianist Stefano Travaglini advanced his standing in the crowded field of solo piano improvisers with Ellipse (Notami Jazz, 2017). That album of (mostly) extemporaneous creations exhibited Travaglini's capacity for coalescing abstraction and lyricism in often understated ways. Trained as a classical pianist under Arvo Part and Vince Mendoza, he benefitted from their broad ...

Stefano Travaglini - Massimiliano Coclite: The Long Line

Italian pianists Stefano Travaglini and Massimiliano Coclite team up for a varied session of original improvisations and those influenced by composers of historical consequence. Both artists are coming from inspiring releases, Travaglini with his solo album Ellipse (Notami Jazz, 2017) and Coclite with his namesake quartet on Strange People (Odardek Records, 2018). These two musicians have ...
Stefano Travaglini: Ellipse
by Matt Hooke
Italian pianist Stefano Travaglini's Ellipse is a masterwork of improvised music. The recordings is the result of a single one-hour long unedited session at Oslo's Rainbow Studio. Travaglini's playing is beautiful and measured featuring a brilliant use of negative space. Travaglini is not interested in wowing the listener with flashy rapid-fire piano lines. Instead, he opts ...
Stefano Travaglini: Ellipse
by Dan McClenaghan
Set up some studio time. Step into the studio. Sit down at the piano. Let your muse take you where she will. That's how pianist Stefano Travaglini rolled for the recording of Ellipse. Solo jazz piano, free improvisation especially, has proven itself over the years a difficult artist endeavor. Consider the modern masters: Keith ...
