about

One of the few musical collaborations I was able to continue during the pandemic was 5 days of recording with Achille, made possible by the generosity of David Tepfer at the Atelier de la Main d’Or in Paris.Without those sessions, which took place during the first week of November 2022, the repertoire on this recording would not exist. For this occasion I began a series of short compositions I titled Short Stories of which there are now 8. On this recording there are 4 Short Stories, a composition by Achille, Achilleism, and 5 improvisations.
The different collaborations between Achille Succi and myself (duo, trio, and different quartets) all aim to move effortlessly between densely written, sparsely written, and freely improvised music.
Every little phrase takes its shape within the musical dialogue, the effect creating a shared storytelling that largely avoids the melodic language and narrative associated with contemporary jazz.
