“…non così lontano dal cuore”—not so far from the heart—is a long,
uncluttered and atmospheric improvisation from the trio of Mauro Sambo
(electronics, electric guitar, piano, shakuhachi and double bass), Marco
Colonna (alto clarinet) and Ivano Nardi (percussion). Over the course
of the forty-one minute-long piece Colonna supplies lithe, serpentine
melodies that frequently echo or counterpoint themselves thanks to
Sambo’s looping and electronic manipulation. The interplay between the
two musicians largely centers on the timbral contrasts and overlaps of
distorted electric guitar and thunderously resonant piano chords on the
one side and the now rounded, now overblown and raw-edged sounds of the
clarinet on the other. A high point is a brief duet for the buzzing,
sustained notes of the reed instrument and the shakuhachi’s skittishly
voice-like melodies. Throughout, Nardi provides sympathetic and
sensitive support on percussion.
