When We Forgot The Melody
Dimitri Grechi Espinoza: alto saxophone
Tito Mangialajo Rantzer: doublebass
(RRJ1006 Rudi Records 2011)
The title When We Forgot The Melody suggests a period of leave, even a little ironic, of the melody.
As a matter of fact the path, that in this work leads towards the uncharted territory of improvisation, gives way to the constant return of a melodic breath, which is never a limit, never a homesickness, but a fertile thrust bearing to the freedom of a research that tends to a sort of musical unfinished.
Dimitri Grechi Espinoza and Tito Mangialajo Rantzer, with the right mix and with a quite curt but decidedly inspired gait, chase the deep reason for this inspired personal research of their own which, suddenly developed in a recording session, can be considered as a full tribute to the sonorous atmospheres and the poetic world of two great musicians like Lee Konitz and Red Mitchell.
