Original Tribute to The Frank Cunimondo Trio | Bossa Nova, Rare Groove, Vocal Jazz & Piano Elegance

Benvenuti a un nuovo appuntamento della serie Original Tribute, interamente dedicato alle sonorità cristalline, all'eleganza Bossa e ai ritmi Rare Groove di una vera e propria gemma del jazz americano: The Frank Cunimondo Trio.

Guidato dal pianista di Pittsburgh Frank Cunimondo ed esaltato dalla voce incantevole di Lynn Marino, il trio ha saputo fondere Bossa Nova, Swing, Cool Jazz e sfumature Funk con una grazia senza tempo. In quest'ora ripercorriamo i loro capolavori più ricercati: dalle celebri interpretazioni di "Feelin' Good" e "Love So Fine", alla travolgente versione extended di "Chameleon" e le atmosfere di "Samba Nova". Viaggiamo poi tra la poesia di "Soon It's Gonna Rain", "We've Only Just Begun" e l'intensa lettura di "Nature Boy", affiancate dalle raffinate "A House Is Not A Home", "Beyond The Clouds" e "What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life". In chiusura, la suite virtuosistica di "Slalom" e l'energia trascinante di "Seven Steps To Heaven".

Un viaggio sonoro di rara bellezza tra pianoforte, Bossa Nova e Vocal Jazz.
