GAROFANO ROSSO

This is a music for a soundtrack and it is a very interesting addition to the band's repertoire. Completely instrumental, not as fluid and intensive, nor bombastic as their other efforts. The compositions are short and keep focus, no meaningless soloing. Not suprisingly, keyboards dominate the album but brass instruments add an important colour to the album, French horn, trumpet and clarinet.

Already the first track is very elegant with organ runs and laid back drumming. "Funerale" is not unsuprisingly a solemn slow track without being depressive. "10 Giugno 1924" is dramatic and quite experimental. The title track might be the most cohesive and melodic piece here, it has a commercial potential, too. "Tema di giovanna" is an exquisite piece of piano and moog music

Overall, a nice album to dive into but not at the height of the first three ones.
