Citriniti is named after brothers, Danilo and Domenico Citriniti born in Catanzaro Italy.
Drummer Danilo and bassist Domenico gradually shifted their focus from
progressive metal to complex Progressive fusion instrumentals,
rich in advanced techniques. The intricacy and sophistication of
their music is easier to understand when considering that these
two stellar musicians grew up going with their father to his gigs
and have shared a lifetime of playing together. The level of
intuitive musical interplay and synergy created by the Citriniti
brothers is a powerful force that inspires awe from fellow
musicians.
After recording their first effort Hydra in 2002, the brothers
Citriniti began planning their greatest musical achievement to
date, Between The Music And Latitude. This new CD features
Italian session veteran Fabrizio Leo who has played with many
successful Italian artists and is known for being one of the best
guitarists in Italy. "Between The Music And Latitude" is an
incredible set of intricate compositions, built on tight interplay
between the three musicians.
In the tradition of other great instrumental projects of this genre,
such as Henderson, Smith and Wooten, Liquid Tension
Experiment and Howe, Wooten and Chambers, this record is
brimming with important performances, both by the ensemble
and by each individual musicians jaw-dropping solos. Tone
Center has built a strong reputation in the marketplace from
recording high caliber musical unions and "Between The Music
And Latitude" is one CD that progressive rock and fusion fans
will be hailing for many years to come.
"Between the Music and Latitude" it is a fantastic effort.
You are all stellar musicians!
So far, you guys have been the best that I have received from Italy,
production, music, songwriting, playing, etc.
