About the album
SYNOLON [from gr. σύνολον, comp. by σύν «with» e ὅλος «everything»] merges the love for songs, free improv, classical, and jazz music. That's 'how' and 'why' Gabriele and Francesco decided to sum their notes in SYNOLON.
At a time when the languages of music are blurring, Gabriele and Francesco decided to create a project where they could unite the worlds they love. Acoustic sounds that blend with electronic and modern sounds; jazz/folk accompaniments that lead to moments of pure improvisation. This is SYNOLON.
Both composers and instrumentalists, in SYNOLON have succeeded in representing their different souls.
