Tom Giampietro Trio +1 - A Thru-Composed Life (2020)

This album is conceived to be a musical autobiography of my life up to the point of time that it was recorded. The individual songs are not meant to represent any particular incident or person in my life, rather the album as a whole represents a broad picture timeline of my life as I see it now. Each composition marks a particular epoch within that overall timeline. It bears repeating that this is how I see my life now - not necessarily as I perceived it while immersed in the struggles and joys of each individual period of time. Nor does it guarantee that I will continue to see the trajectory of my life thru the same emotional lense. The magnitude of our successes, failures, joys, sorrows, challenges and triumphs invariably change as we gain perspective - sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse.
