Watch the Walls Instead
Electric bassist Giacomo Merega leads this trio featuring Noah Kaplan (saxophone) and Marco Cappelli (guitars) in collaborative settings with Anthony Coleman (piano) and Mauro Pagani (violin). Watch the Walls Instead is the follow up to Merega's critically acclaimed debut, The Light and Other Things(2008).
"So, how is the music on this recording? Well, it's like when Webern was asked to write the music for that classic sci-fi thriller in the early 80's, and eventually it turned out that Webern had actually been long deceased (which caused great embarrassment among the producers). At least, that's how I remember that story, and this music maybe too, somehow." --Giacomo Merega
