About the album

“Nicola Sergio is a melodist. Not one related to the traditional clichés of an Italy which gave birth to the Bel Canto, or one whose melodic construction prevails due to a lack of language or knowledge. Nicola Sergio is endowed with an exceptional melodic sense ; his inner chant immediately makes his music familiar : his music is true, without ostentation, raised by two fellow musicians ranked among the most talented French jazzmen. Performing also Franz Schubert and Kenny Wheeler – two fabulous melody composers in their own respective style – Nicola Sergio trio signs a manifest of delicacy and whisper, like so many odes to dreams and enchantment.” (From the linernotes- written by Jean Charles Richard)
