This recording is a collection of musical moments dedicated to pianist Bill Evans. The three men at the heart of this project - Mike Ladd, from the USA, Emmanuel Bex from France, and Nico Morelli from Italy - create something very new from their respective traditions. Together, they are like a perfect storm, bringing together the past and the future into a swirling present tense. Bill Evans too was a bridge between two worlds, between Miles Davis and classical composers like Satie and Debussy. This bridge between styles is present here also as primitive meets the avant-garde, the street meets the steeple, the sky meets the ground. This is the space that is captured so beautifully on this recording.
