Claudio Filippini - Overflying '2016

Tracks list

Through Overflying Claudio Filippini and CAM JAZZ are treating listeners to a
gem of a piano solo performance, in which the young artist has the opportunity
to draw on his boundless sensitivity to music, without restraints or
superfluities. Filippini plots the course of such a free flight by simply
listening to his inner self and unconditional love for music, beyond genres and
styles. Music is the final destination, whether it be conveyed through
composition and improvisation or the performance of pieces of powerful, refined
composers. And so let us dip into themes that can be either sweet and almost
childlike (El Noi De La Mare), rhythmic and sharp (Voilà) or charming in
their harmonic design (Phantom Zone) and into pieces by composers of enduring
fame, like Prokofiev (Tales Of The Old Grandmother) or Ravel (Le Tombeau De
Couperin - Forlane), performed with an almost dreamy grace. Then there is all
the excellence, depth and cast-iron expertise Filippini employs in playing
Domenico Scarlatti (K 135) or Beethoven (Sonata no. 14, Opera 27 no. 2), on whom
he draws to achieve daring, exciting jazz improvisations in the tracks that
follow: Mozart is also detected among the varying, flowing and modern chords.
But in this album you can also hear beautiful, moving little ballads (Mentre
Dormi) or pieces that are built on singable melodic themes woven on
stylistically changeable harmonizations (Via Andante). In Overflying listeners
are concurrently disclosed a musician’s soul and the thousand expressive
options of a wonderful instrument, the piano… and thus understand how deep
and indissoluble the connection among them may become.
