Envisions by Claudio Zanghieri
“Envisions” strives to catch the essence of the jazz-funk legacy while exploring some uncharted territories and choices to search for a future development of the music itself. “This is what it’s all about, music is a joint effort and the envision of a soundscape is the burning force behind a project like this” says the leader, staying strong behind his principles of honouring the past and searching for a development to his inspirations.
You’ll experience the beauty of real, vintage and acoustic sounds alongside some experimental and unusual settings going through many styles from jazz to funk or reggae, presenting what the leader conceives as “today’s music, it has a bit of everything in it, the foundation of the past with its solid, satisfying character and the edgy, unsettling feeling of something new”.
