Музыка и песни Feliciati, Lorenzo / Feliciati, Lorenzo на CD

For his sixth recording for RareNoise Records the restlessly creative bassist-composer-producer Lorenzo Feliciati has realized his most ambitious and personal project to date in Koi. A concept album based on the life of the renowned fish, Koi features former Japan drummer Steve Jansen and current King Crimson drummer Pat Mastelotto along with pianist Alessandro Gwis, trumpeter Angelo Olivieri, saxophonist Nicola Alesini and a horn section consisting of tenor saxophonist Stan Adams, baritone saxophonist Duilio Ingrosso and bass trombonist Pierluigi Bastioli. A suite-like offering that intersperses mesmerizing ambient interludes with full-blown prog-rock type anthems, Koi showcases Feliciati's vision while highlighting his considerable chops on fretted and fretless electric basses.

Lorenzo Feliciati is rapidly gaining recognition as one of Europe's most dependably creative bassists. "I find that Feliciati's style on the bass reminds me more of players like Victor Bailey, Percy Jones, Jaco, Gary Willis and perhaps Jeff Berlin," writes MJ Brady in Proggnosis.com. "Progressive rock, fusion, world fusion are heard on a CD from perhaps Italy's best kept secret on the bass guitar." A prolific studio musician who's played on hundreds of pop and rock projects, he's released a series of stimulating albums featuring his original compositions, such as 2008's trio session Wasabi (Picanto) with pianist Alessandro Gwis and drummer Emanuele Smimmo and 2010's Closer (ViaVeneto Jazz) with guest Cuong Vu. He's probably best known as the leader of Naked Truth. Featuring Vu (recently replaced by Graham Haynes), Roy Powell on piano and Hammond B3 and drummer Pat Mastelotto, the band's debut album Shizaru (Rarenoise) earned glowing reviews.
