my
new album!
'Space Age'
Marco Castelli New Organ Trio
from my liner notes:
It
is, after all, always "the space age". From Galileo to Salgari or from
Apollo 11 to Perseverance, the urge to imagine or explore other places
in our reality has always been a necessity. In music, too, it is always
"the space age". Imaging and exploring other places and newworlds is a
state of artistic necessity which becomes nourishment, good "fuel", a
state of the being that makes us live in a positive tension with music-making.
In composing or improvising, this "lifeblood" is necessary to be effective
and able to convey emotion. The aim of this album was originally to bring
back the history and content of a few years of concerts, but, due to the
forced stop brought on by the pandemic, it took on a different form. It
was created through long streaming sessions - Marco Vattovani (my travel
companion, not only as a drummer) in his Bunker Studio in Trieste and
myself in Venice. Paradoxically, the 'suspended time' of quarantine projected
us into research and exploration of other spaces. We worked by letting
ideas flow freely, experimenting with solutions, playing with electronics
and developing, thanks to the contribution of Matteo Alfonso at the Hammond,
the possibility of a new sound for an Organ Trio.
Enjoy listening!
