This CD is the first part of a larger project, mainly based on my personal approach to composition, developed during many years and through many works: a kind of harmonic and melodic side-slipping applied to different music forms with a dense texture.

Tempus Fugit is a remake of one of my compositions written in the ‘80s, based on a Kurt Weill’s shred (main solos: violin, trumpet, tenor sax).
Effetti Collaterali originates from a bass riff, ending with an extrapolated rhythmic cell by the rock band Colosseum over the riff, with a collective improvisation (main solos: trombone, bass clarinet).
Pianoless starts with a Turkish clarinet solo, while the bass plays mainly in double notes (main solos: Turkish clarinet, violin, alto sax).
Tuttecose comes from a joke of my 4-year-old son, singing into a baby musicbox (main solos: clarinet, trumpet).
Shibui is based on harmonic side-slipping (main solos: tenor sax, contrabass clarinet, violin, drums, trombone, alto sax).
Serial Player is written in twelve-tone technique and the solos stem from the four main series (main solos: baritone sax, collective solos).
Serendipity, according to the title, has two different moods linked by a rhythm pattern (main solos: flute, trumpet, alto sax, trombone, violin).
N.O. Tap is a funny ending, a mixture of side-slipping, tip tap, swing and collective improvisation à la New Orleans.
