The «coherent deformation» of the available significations arranges them by a new meaning and enable the listeners, but the talking actor too, to move a decisive step
(Maurice Merleau-Ponty, â€Signsâ€)
WOW!
On january 2007, “Musica Jazz†(the main italian jazz magazine) and a pool of more than 60 critics (press & radio) have voted me: “Best New Italian Talent 2006â€. WoW! So young...:-)
WE SAY:
“Essential writing, solid themes, free and biting improvisation make the group Synaper a symbiotic interplay and collective amalgam†(Marco Delle Fave, “Jazzitâ€. "How could we better describe our attempt to create a combo which is not only an addition of single parts but a volumetric object which makes improvising a spontaneous composing and a multidimensional texturing? In fact also the name of the group is alluding to this collective, communicating and –why not- political principle, we could translate it as “connecting creator of synapsesâ€. In this kind of ecosystem (or system of echoes?) that is a group of musicians what is really important is that all participants are taking and giving signals to each other trying to run a lively and jazzy conversation developed with consciousness and passion". (Giancarlo Tossani & Synapser)
THEY WRITE:
All About Jazz, Budd Kopman High energy but reasonably accessible modern jazz. The dynamic music has clear, developed motifs and driving rhythms that will get you moving. Put this on when you need a pick-me-up. Terrific.
Jazzit, Vincenzo Martorella Tossani’s music moves on open structures and schemes but with much control (timbric and of composition), and with a good management of all the material. The themes, all originals, are dense and thoughtful, almost abstract playing on charming shadows based on the precise dialog almost philosophic between the musicians. Nothing is left to easy, commercial chords or to a prosaic resolution. The results is not an easy listening but a penetrating one, to understand this music can give great joy.
Jazz Review, Glenn Astarita Kudos are in order for the artists’ synergistic output and ability to capitalize on each other’s strengths.
Jazzman, Pascal Anquetil Intrigue, seduit, deconcerte par la diversitè des paysages qu’il invite à visiter.
