Melody at the centre.
Freedom in the details.
A contemporary piano trio blending jazz, classical influences, subtle electronic textures and cinematic writing.
Sparks, released by German label Enja Records, brings together eight original compositions by Italian pianist Pasquale Stafano. Creative, romantic and cinematic, the music moves between intimate melodic writing and rhythmic energy.
Rooted in the jazz trio tradition, the project explores the dialogue between three distinctive voices with a personal language drawing on classical, rock, world and contemporary music.
Stafano has performed internationally at jazz festivals, theatres and clubs and has released seven albums as a leader.
“With this new album I want to open a new chapter of my music … always focusing on the beauty of melody.”— Pasquale StafanoFull biography ↗
