MIROSLAV VITOUS Mediterranean Meeting

recorded in Piazza del Nuraghe, Sant’Anna Arresi (Cagliari - Italy),
on saturday 4 September 2004, during “Ai Confini tra Sardegna e Jazz 2004” festival.

Dave Liebman : soprano saxophone
Enzo Favata : tenor and soprano saxophones, bass clarinet, electronics, flutes
Marcello Peghin : guitar
Daniele di Bonaventura : bandoneon, pianoforte
Miroslav Vitous : bass, samplings
U.T. Gandhi : drums


this is a project sporadically run by Vitous with italian musicians that I believe never lead to any recording - we are told that most of these tracks are his compositions, which we don't know the titles of, and I actually think the other compositions are Favata's. "The music played by this quartet is a full infusion of sound that grows and takes concrete form in a decidedly modern tone. Its origins lie in a blend of different styles of improvised jazz, from the hypnotic atmosphere of 1970s Davis, to a mix of European jazz with original acoustics that hark back to the harsher sounds of ECM, where free rock and jazz rock combine in electric, psychedelic atmospheres, alongside the Mediterranean and Latin poetry of Favata and Di Bonaventura’s instruments" : that's what said in Favata's site, and yes, we are in electric jazz territory, as I don't wanna use the word "fusion", quite reminiscent of zawinul indeed... Also included in the folder, marked as track 00, a radio introduction in ITALIAN with bio notes and commentaries - this intro runs for 2'49", you can skip downloading it if you don't understand italian.

no tracklist announced, see FFP for running sequence

running time : 59'43" (without radio intro and outro)
WITH radio intro and outro, it would be 62'45"


FM radio broadcast by "Il Cartellone - Radio Tre Suite Jazz", Radio 3 RAI [third channel of Italian national radio], on tuesday 5 April 2005, 21:30 hours.
