Secondo Me

This is the second album from the Lorenzo Nardocci Trio and their first for Losen Records. A pan-European trio (whose members are from Italy, Denmark, and Norway), making wave across Europe as one of the most exceptional and refreshing piano trios currently on the scene. They are simply awesome!

Lorenzo Nardocci: "It includes six new compositions developed during the last year through great interplay with Andreas and Terje. Themes are based on life´s everyday moments and on important people in my life: This is, in fact, the essence of the album title Secondo Me (According to me).

Songs like "Rubato" and "Al Quinto Piano" represent moments of imagination at the piano and are dedicated to the two places where I mostly worked on the melodies; the church in my hometown, Langhus kirke, and the Norwegian Academy of Music in Oslo, up on the 5th floor, as the title says, where all the rehearsal rooms are.

Birozza is my love, my family. This song is made especially with my beloved wife in mind. Yes, this is a love song! The soulful groove is the way I feel together with her: swinging, relaxed and happy. B.M.W. are my kids, always in action, funny, lovely dynamos! The album also includes three short improvisations: these are pure moments of joy in between recordings at the legendary Rainbow Studio"

Personnel: Lorenzo Nardocci (piano), Andreas Dreier (bass), Terje Evensen (drums)
