Nobis Trio

蔡雯慧，一個生於台灣、長於台灣的爵士歌手、作曲/編曲家。在旅居歐洲多年的時間裡不但在比利時擁有三個自己的樂團，並且以solo artist的身份闖蕩歐洲在東歐、西歐與南歐都有許多演出。Gabriele與Marco就是她在義大利一起演出的夥伴。
有別於一般吉他手喜歡在音量與技巧上大作文章，Gabriele喜歡擁抱空間並在節奏上面挑戰樂手; Marco擁有既悠揚又如泣如訴地小號音色 ; 而蔡雯慧則是用最平鋪直敘的方式挑戰觀眾內心最深層的情感。這三個樂手的音樂不盡相同，卻巧妙地互補、融合在一起。
Nobis trio 帶來自己的原創音樂及經典改編，他們的音樂如詩、如畫、如戲，既是浪漫卻又逗趣，雖然只有三個人卻充滿張力。如果您沒有很多旅行經驗，那麼請讓他們用音樂帶您到處去旅行！

NEW REVIEW ON THE DUTCH JAZZ JOURNAL: JAZZNU.COM

MENTALE REIS DOOR NEDERLAND MET GOTTFRIED dI FRANCO – Jazznu.com
“..So Far is door de persoonlijke beschrijvingen van Nederland een album dat sfeer en individualiteit uitademt. Nergens wordt grof muzikaal geweld aangewend om (vermeend?) vakmanschap te bewijzen. Creativiteit, intimiteit en impressionisme overtuigen veel meer. Strak gecomponeerde delen worden op een natuurlijke wijze afgewisseld met fraaie persoonlijke invullen van de bandleden. Die je gerust als improvisaties mag beschouwen…”

Recensione DEDALO – Alceste Ayroldi

Gabriele di Franco – bud powell jazz orchestra © Federico Rollo

“La scrittura di Gabriele Di Franco è costruita intorno ai rocciosi segmenti del passato, ma guarda con occhio vigile e purpureo verso l’irrequietezza del free jazz, dell’avanguardia europea, dove il tenore della guest Marcello Allulli ne declina il verbo, con passaggi ben coagulati dall’uno all’altro emisfero (“Ninja”).

” Aspetta” è dominata dal quel soave senso di irrequietezza costruito intorno allo stop and go e a un ritmo con la cadenza di una marcia bandistica avvolta da mestizia: un lirismo che incontra la ballad rock sottolineata dal torrenziale assolo di Giancarlo Del Vitto che getta benzina sul fuoco con la sua chitarra elettrica.”

NEW REVIEW ON THE DUTCH JAZZ JOURNAL: Jazzflits n. 302

Een debuut-cd is altijd iets bijzonders. Het is nooit zomaar een tussendoortje dat even in elkaar wordt geflanst. Over de debuut-cd ‘So Far’ van Gabriele di Franco en Stefan Gottfried is goed nagedacht. De muziek reflecteert hun helden, hun visie op de geimproviseerde muziek, maar ook de plek waar ze nu zijn neergestreken…”
“Het is een uur eigentijdse jazz met duidelijke wortels in de historie, die zich graag laat herbeluisteren en daarbij aan diepte en zeggingskracht wint.”

“C’è attesa, fiducia, pazienza in “Aspetta”, il brano con cui il leccese Gabriele di Franco si è aggiudicato il titolo di secondo miglior com- positore al Jazz Comp Graz 2017. Unico finali- sta italiano tra 52 candidature dal mondo. C’è molto della sua vita nelle note scritte su quel pentagramma. Ci sono i suoi sogni rincorsi lontano da casa, in quella Bruxelles che lo ha accolto tra i suoi musicisti, c’è la passione che lo fa scommettere su quell’impresa chiamata musica, che non ha orario, tempo, regole, solo rigore, impegno, volontà. Gabriele è giovane e ha una bella carriera davanti. All’ indomani della sua vittoria lo abbiamo intervistato.”

“Waiting, trust, patience. You’ll find it all in “Aspetta” (Wait), the piece for which Gabriele di Franco from Lecce was awarded the price for second best composer at Jazz Comp Graz 2017. He was the only Italian finalist among 52 candidates from all over the world. A lot of his life can be found in the notes written on that pentagram. His dreams which has brought him far from home, to the city of Brussels which has welcomed him among its musicians, the passion who brought him to bet on music as his livelihood, a life with no schedules, no set hours or rules, just rigor, commitment, will. Gabriele is young and has his career in front of him, we interviewed him the day after his victory.”
