Opus Trio

the project
  • Ralph Moore
  • Giuseppe Bassi
  • Anthony Pinciotti

OPUS TRIO is a project characterized by an amount of rhythmic diversity that provides lively direct support to a unique sound, distilled, full of colors and sounds drawn from different cultures. The original pieces by Ralph Moore and Giuseppe Bassi lend themselves to individual and group vehicles allowing the trio a dynamic interaction that alternates with a compelling melodic development of modern jazz, demonstrating a wider range of his abilities and the gigantic creativity of composers who feel like break free from pre-established schemes, express the deep knowledge of tradition, the past and the innate sense of enthralling swing. Anthony Pinciotti's versatility is a perfectly balanced sound blend between rhythmic energy and melodic elegance at the service of a project that features three artists of international thickness who offer emotions with ever-changing accents, sound scenarios that move on parallel tracks experienced on the wave of spontaneity. The common denominator is the purest jazz, where swing, blues and passion are combined between ancient sounds and modern visions.
