Salvatore Bonafede Trio: Sicilian Opening

Salvatore Bonafede, piano
Marcello Pellitteri, drums
Marco Panascia, double and electric

Renowned pianist and composer Salvatore Bonafede gets back with a trio, featuring Marcello Pellitteri (drums) and Marco Panascia (electric and double bass). Out of folk clichés, Salvatore Bonafede Trio takes Mediterranean melodies dipped into the bittersweet colours of their home-island and opens them up to a worldwide jazz audience. His newest album Sicilian Opening on JazzEyes features originals played with fine melodic lines and evocative sound, as well as evergreen pop hits arranged in Bonafede’s distinctive jazz style. With this recording Bonafede definitively cements his reputation as one of the most compelling piano players and brilliant composers on the present scene.
