Raf Ferrari Qrt – Quattro (Losen Records, 2020)
Italian ensemble plays music that defies musical borders. Although you could mistake it for a jazz band, pianist Raf Ferrai and his colleagues are excellent instrumentalists who go beyond and play a fantastic mix of contemporary jazz, modern chamber music, progressive rock drums, funk and world music influences.
The cello adds a wonderful tone to the quartet, inserting an exquisite neoclassical flavor to the ensemble.
The lineup includes Raf Ferrari on piano; Vito Stano on cello; Guerino Rondolone on double bass; and Claudio Sbrolli on drums.
The quartet released two earlier albums: Pauper (2008) and Venere E Marte (2012).
