Via Veneto Jazz presents Close but Far by the Tano Trio featuring Leo Genovese. How do traditions travel among space and time? What defines the collective consciousness of a culture? How do elements that are so far away in reality, become so close in different dimensions? This record is the product of the union of a shared language that exists in two cultures that are geographically far away from each other and living under different contexts, but at the same they are so close. Daniele Germani (saxophone) and Stefano Battaglia (bass) are two musicians from Italy, joined by Leo Genovese (piano) and Juan Chiavassa (drums) from Argentina. Leo and Juan come from Italian families in Argentina. One could argue that Argentina's mother country is Spain, but the culture there is very much influenced by the Italian immigration movements of the past two centuries. So when the two Italians and the two Argentines met in New York, they found out that they actually shared a language beyond both the spoken word and music; they felt like brothers. Close but Far is a story about immigration, about the people who take the chance and leave things behind only to become nomads in search of new experiences and new sounds. These four musicians, who come from similar backgrounds in different parts of the world, gathered in New York City to record this album, and the chemistry among all the elements that come into play make this a unique musical experience. Personnel: Leo Genovese - piano; Daniele Germani - alto saxophone; Stefano Battaglia - bass; Juan Chiavassa - drums.
