EPISOD - FASOLI, MIGLIARDI, BIRRO

Episod brings together three distinctive voices in Italian jazz: Claudio Fasoli on tenor and soprano saxophones, Rudy Migliardi on trombone and Paolo Birro on piano. The trio explores Fasoli's original compositions through lyrical interplay, counterpoint and improvisation, without the conventional bass-and-drums rhythm section.
