Beyond Time and Adagio Assai are the 2 first parts of a triptych. These 2 albums will first come out digitally then followed by a limited physical publication made of the special edition of the 2 CD’s and a book where thoughts are gathered by the author in relation to the music on the albums and on topics such as ritual and vision, resistance and resilience, intuition vs control, sacred and profane, symbolism and polarity, tradition vs creation… More info soon.
”Soniano is one of the most imaginative and expressive bassists I happened to come across lately and his work on this album is a superb example of the role of the bass in contemporary music; no longer a background support but a soloist of equal standing and importance to the other band members. His tone, technique and ability to converse with his cohorts is nothing short of miraculous.”
