LORENZO TUCCI - TOUCH  
LISTEN
 

Lorenzo Tucci, one of the most valued drummers in the international jazz scene, distinguishes himself for his expressive pathos and capability of spreading to the new generations the teachings of the great masters of the past (Art Blakey, Philly Jo Jones, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams, Max Roach), using a personal style which underlines all of his versatility. His ambition prompted himself to produce an album entirely composed of his songs, including homage tracks to the Clarke-Boland Sextet and Big Band. "Touch" is a well-balanced mix of jazz, funk, bossa nova, latin, dance and pop, with a strong groove and a flawless swing, featuring the singers Alice Ricciardi and Walter Ricci, and the musicians Gianluca Petrella, Fabrizio Bosso, Daniele Scannapieco, Pietro Lussu and Luca Mannutza.

We mention the never-ending groove of "Please Don’t Leave", "My Kind’A World" and "The Sky", which bears the signature of Lorenzo, the cheerfulness of "Lilemor" or "Ensadinado", and the funk warmth in "Tropicola", originally composed by the genial mind of the French Nino Nardini. With "Touch" we are in front of a work which mix up music similarities, jazz moods and music experiences even different, surprisingly manipulated by the talent, the delicacy, the coloured "touch" of Lorenzo Tucci.
