A mystery begins. A journey. A vision emerges. Free, intuitive music, played spontaneously in the present moment, without any prior arrangements. I invited musicians, some of whom I’ve known and trusted for a long time, such as Fabrizio Ottaciucci, with whom I’ve enjoyed collaborating on and off since 1987. I met Fabio Mina in Bogliasco in 2007, and since then our paths have crossed more and more frequently. He has made a marvellous musical development.

Then there’s Francesco, whom Fabio knew, and who contributes wonderfully with his percussion. Fabio, Francesco, and I played several concerts as a trio.

And then my discovery: Annie, with her clear, unaffected voice… without any prior improvisation experience, she was able to wholeheartedly embrace this musical adventure. Thus, a previously unheard music was born, which we all brought to life together.

I wish the listener the leisure and patience to truly take the time to follow our inner movements, allowing the images, spaces, landscapes, and sensations evoked by this music to arise within them. Enjoy the experience. One more thought: There is currently an enormous change in the earth’s energy field and in people’s consciousness, and this affects all living beings. This all happens „Between Earth and Sky“. New frequencies are coming to the earth. Hopefully they will lead us to a more united and peaceful humanity. A new consciousness is born, and it is our choice to go along with it and embrace the future. We are all co-creators of „what is“.
