Biography Inwardness
Inwardness
Introspection, the space between sounds and inhabited silences are the basis of their inspiration. The music seeks to reflect the inner self that is in all things. The resulting songs have a raw and organic sound purity, as if they had been shaped by the seasons, a kaleidoscope where rhythmic melodies and sound textures collide and mingle. The atmosphere evokes the grandiose scenery of a fantasized moon in "Moon - Landing", the mythical, vast and timeless in "One Hour Waiting" and the nagging, stabbing thoughts that disrupt our inner peace in "Elephant Calling".
During the summer of 2015 they locked themselves away for months in southern France to develop their "plainness in sound" in rehearsal sessions. They had fun playing blindfolded, sometimes working in the open air, sometimes in town absorbing urban energy, all the time listening to the resonance behind every silence. The result was Inwardness.
The Trio made their debut in February 2016 in Biot to a very favourable reception from audience and critics alike, with further performances throughout the South of France. They recorded their first album in late 2016 at Artesuono Studio in Italy with the celebrated ECM engineer Stefano Amerio.
