Fotografia is the second album by Italian (Dublin resident) pianist Francesco Turrisi for Diatribe records. Turrisi presents an original blend of contemporary European jazz influenced by Baroque music and Mediterranean traditional music in an album featuring intimate piano trio alongside piano solo performances.
The album contains original compositions by Turrisi and arrangements of Italian traditional melodies as well as a series of short improvisations on a baroque bass line called “Ciaccona” performed here by an exceptional rhythm section comprised of Portuguese drummer Joao Lobo and Danish bass player Claus Kaarsgaard.
