Today we are an Italian-French free improvisation
quartet, normally playing without a written theme. We play the tunes starting
the improvisation from microfragments (one note, an atmosphere, a light…). We
are searching for an interplay, more co-operative than based on a competitive
dialog. Trying to avoid the stereotypes (like i.e. any furious way to play free
jazz) in order to reach to a kind of improvisation builded on a deeper
listening between the players
