Antonello Losacco feat. Roberto Ottaviano - Worlds Beyond (GleAM Records 2023) - Live in Studio

GleAM Records is proud to present the Live Session of "La Doppia Ora", the track 6 on "Worlds Beyond", the new album by the bassist & composer Antonello Losacco out on September 27, 2023 and distributed by IRD International and Believe Digital.

The album was produced by GleAM Records with the support of Puglia Sounds within “Programmazione Puglia Sounds Records 2023” – Fondo Speciale Cultura – Calendario Unico Regionale 2023, operazione finanziata a valere sul “Fondo Speciale per la Cultura e Patrimonio Culturale L.R. 40 art. 15 comma 3”.

"The way he uses his compositional material is characterized by the attention to detail, the color dictated by organic and the formulation of structures not at all obvious. If already in his debut album focusing on the string quartet, cross and delight of a certain musical production, shows to have clear ideas, in this new project he develops a definite figure that for melodic quality and poetic suspension, finding a matrix straddling an imaginary folklore and a dreamlike fairy-tale vision of a certain songwriting. Antonello therefore, for the determination, the meticulous research and for the connection between emotional impact and unpredictability, carves out a place within a very authoritative perimeter made of signatures already active for many decades.”

Roberto Ottaviano

To inspire the compositions some suggestions that fascinate the author: the perception of time, the mysterious emotions and sensations that lies behind a look, the “worlds beyond” human understanding, hardly explicable by words. The compositional style has a strong descriptive component and refers to cinematic sounds, which are intertwined with european and contemporary jazz, maintaining a strong sense of melody and a formal and timbric refinement in the arrangements. The trio is joined by soprano sax by Roberto Ottaviano (tracks 1, 4 and 9) and vocals by Badrya Razem (track 4).
