REVIEWS

La registrazione rigorosamente live a Lisbona al club Desterro di Lisbona, vede tre coraggiosi improvvisatori all’opera in una situazione cameristica e ricca di energia, derivante dall’intensità del dialogo fra tre strumentisti che hanno fatto dell’estemporaneità della creazione musicale la loro ragione di vita. Ernesto Rodrigues alla viola e João Madeira al contrabbasso incrociano le corde dei loro strumenti con il clarinetto basso di Bruno Parrinha, in un connubio che si sviluppa in tre episodi, a volte lenti, al volte in grovigli di note e suoni eterodossi che mantengono un loro logica.
È una situazione concentrata, quarantacinque minuti che scorrono lasciando intravedere l’energia che scorre sotto la superfice.

VITTORIO LOCONTE, kathodik



Recorded live at Desterro, Lisbon in May 2023, is
another magisterial example of free minimal music from
the Portuguese Masters. The music is very peaceful and
tranquil, yet full of expression. The string instruments
build a kind of background, on which the bass clarinet
of Bruno Parrinha flows. The trio plays a suite in
three movements, "I-III". As explained on Bandcamp:
"La registrazione rigorosamente live a Lisbona al club
Desterro di Lisbona, vede tre coraggiosi improvvisatori
all'opera in una situazione cameristica e ricca di energia,
derivante dall'intensità del dialogo fra tre strumentisti
che hanno fatto dell'estemporaneità della creazione
musicale la loro ragione di vita." I personally like the
most the opening 19 minutes long "I", with a wonderful
syntony and synergy of the string with the delicate lines
of the bass clarinet. But the other tracks are also very
touching. "II" is the most abstract track of the album.
Finally, "III" lasts 15 minutes and is a little less energetic,
but more lyrical, like a free improvised ballad.
