Bonafede, Salvatore
Modus Operandi
The power trio of Bonafede, Gomez and Hart shines in a new light on this album, a sort of 'art of the first take'. The Sicilian pianist scores his first "four-peat" for Red Records, following Ortodoxa, Paradoxa, Piano Solo. The dense web of literary references hints at a playful and sophisticated puzzle, where language finds its home in melodies finely woven into chains of harmonic substitutions.nts but who also knew how to take less introspective paths, including a superfine and very lively swing. Eleven tracks that intertwine and blend within the new languages of literature, music and the contemporary arts, clues to a puzzle to be pieced together through the presentation of singable melodies embroidered upon chains of harmonic substitutions. This album possesses the noble grandeur of 'naked truth', a place of choice where listeners can become a proactive part of the music, discovering the Trio's myriad subtleties and inventions with every listen.
