2014 release. Pianist Francesco Nastro presents Colors of Light with long-time collaborator Giuseppe la Pusata on drums and Paris-based Canadian bassist Chris Jennings. The compositions are all born from the pen of the pianist, except for a song by Don Backy rearranged here with such rhythmic and harmonic distortion that it seems like a new composition. The search for the new permeates this entire CD. In fact, every song takes some unexpected directions, both in interplay between musicians and in the composition of the songs. Many songs feature irregular time signatures and rhythmic and harmonic complexity, though the simple melodies that bloom in the album make it a fluid listening experience.
