Way Out

2008 release from Alessandra Celletti, the virtuoso Italian composer/pianist whose previous CDs include acclaimed interpretations of works by Glass, Satie and Gurdjieff. Way Out is Alessandra's third album of original material, following Overground (1997) and Chi Mi Dar le Ali (2006). Recorded in Rome in 2007, Way Out marks an innovative exploration of several musical styles, including vocal tracks sung by Alessandra as well as a number of her exquisite solo piano compositions. She is joined on most of the tracks by drummer Fabio Ferri, while Renzo Pin provided English-language lyrics. A unique set that defies classification. LTM.
