With his music Simone Basile wishes to reawaken young people’s interest in contemporary music, art, and progressive change, in opposition to the static period marked by the pandemic. His quintet is formed by some of the finest european young musicians. Manuel Caliumi is a multi award winning saxophonist (best soloist in the Chicco Bettinardi award, Marco Tamburini Competition, Stefano Cerri competition) and tours all over Europe with his Hack Out trio. Santiago Fernandez, a young pianist trained at Siena Jazz in Italy, is among the most active talents on the European scene thanks to his early experience in international festivals around the world. Bassist Ferdinando Romano was awarded by the Magazine Musica Jazz’s Critics Poll as Best Italian Rising Star 2020; he tours intensively all over Europe with his band Totem playing with musicians like Ralph Alessi, Enrico Rava, Robin Eubanks, Glenn Ferris, Elias Stemeseder, Benny Golson and many more. Young drummer Giovanni Paolo Liguori is one of the most powerful and interesting drummers of the new generation and collaborates as a sideman with many Italian and international musicians (Fabrizio Bosso, Ralph Alessi, Robin Eubanks, Jerome Sabbagh…). The energetic force and the spirituality of Indian ragas form the basis of their latest album, “Morning Raga”, which is a flow of energy, the urge to begin making music again with others and share it with the new generations. Naturally, each track is filtered through the artistic lens of the Apulian guitarist, who has used these elements of Eastern music as an inspirational springboard off of which he continues to expand his personal musical language.
