Roberto Olzer, Lorenzo Cominoli - Timeline (2020) Hi Res

"Sometimes the lines of time intertwine giving life to knots that leave a mark, activate a change, lead to a turning point to another node". You could condense in this sentence the manifesto of this album that stems from an ancient collaboration between the two artists who nevertheless had never exactly crossed their paths discographically. Two different aesthetics those of Cominoli and Olzer; the first original in phrasing and melodic construction, intense and never taken for granted, the second by now consolidated pianist among the most interesting that have appeared on the national scene in recent times, with unusual qualities also in the compositional and arrangement field. An elegant, refined record, with partly original pieces that are not necessarily well-beaten. A quality, enjoyable and perfect sounding disc, even for the most demanding audiophile palates.

"Timeline" - as stated in its self-explanatory title - is a personal timeline, a chronological thread that unites significant events in our lives. Sometimes the lines of time intertwine, creating knots that leave a mark, trigger a change, lead to a turning point, until you get to another knot.

Two different aesthetics those of Cominoli and Olzer; the first original in phrasing and melodic construction, intense and never taken for granted, the second consolidated pianist among the most interesting that appeared on the national scene in the recent period, with qualities not common also as composer and arranger.
