Marco Bolfelli Trio feat. Klaus Gesing – Streamflow

℗ 2014 Birdland Sounds

(eng)

“Streamflow” is the first release of young guitarist Marco Bolfelli and it was published in

December 2014 by Birdland Sounds label.

The album is made up of eleven original compositions recorded with Simone Serafini on double

bass and Igor Checchini on drums; it also features ECM recording artist Klaus Gesing as a special

guest on few tracks, playing bass clarinet and soprano sax.

Different and sometimes contrasting moods characterize the tunes, ranging between acoustic and

electric sounds; few electronic elements are present too.

However, the best description of the music of this project or, at least, of his aspirations, is

represented by the old adage by Heraclitus: “because of the swiftness and speed of change, (the

river) scatters things and brings them together again, it forms and dissolves, it approaches and

departs”.

“Streamflow” è il primo lavoro discografico del giovane chitarrista Marco Bolfelli, pubblicato nel

dicembre 2014 per l’etichetta Birdland Sounds.

Il disco raccoglie undici composizioni originali eseguite in trio con Simone Serafini al contrabbasso

e Igor Checchini alla batteria, con la presenza in alcune tracce dell’ospite Klaus Gesing (ECM

recording artist) al clarinetto basso e sassofono soprano.

I brani presentano climi e sfumature diverse e talvolta contrastanti che oscillano tra sonorità

acustiche ed elettriche, con l’occasionale inserimento di elementi elettronici.

Tuttavia la migliore descrizione della musica di questo progetto, o perlomeno delle sue aspirazioni,

è rappresentata dall’antica massima di Eraclito, secondo il quale “a causa dell’impetuosità e della

velocità del mutamento, il fiume disperde e raccoglie, si concentra e si allenta, viene e va”.
