| :: BLOGFOOLK (Italy)– 18/01/2013 –RECOMMENDED […]”Between acoustic and psychedelia there are original sounds and unique melodies, allowing the listener to travel without borders in the imaginative Univers of their music[…]If you enjoyed “OrangeTree” this new Elias Nardi Quartet Album will be surprising.” :: MUSIC WAVES/PROGRESSIVE WAVES (France) - Feb 2013 - RECOMMENDED- (8/10) "Here it is an unique and surprising artist[…]Elias Nardi founded in 2010 the Elias Nardi Quartet[…]inventing the Ethno Jazz Progressive of the XXI Century. Totally original, the music of Elias Nardi Quartet is without comparison[…]A complete work of art, a complete world, a rare gem, a jewel. Ethnic? Classical? Experimental? Yes, of course. Innovative first of all, and mostly poetic. A surprising revelation” :: FOLK BULLETIN (Italy), May 2013 E allora, dove sta il pregio di questo album capace di piacerci dal primo contatto? Che è scritto e suonato con il cuore e con la testa, ma attenzione! La testa la trovi dove ti aspetteresti il cuore, e viceversa. Nessuno dei quattro musicisti si ferma al ruolo predestinato (e poi, da chi?), tutti (il leader per primo) si offrono all’ascolto in una veste impropria, traendo dai loro strumenti quelle vibrazioni sonore inattese e sorprendenti che fanno di un disco un disco speciale. Influsso magico del potere dei tarocchi? Può darsi, ma non ci crediamo più di tanto. Capacità di fare ottima musica con eleganza e spirito innovativo? Molto più credibile. Fatelo vostro e non vi pentirete" NEW FOLK SOUNDS (NETHERLANDS), July 2013 "Elias Nardi plays the oud, and does it so more than excellent. He plays so in a special way, by failing to adhere to the traditional conventions. That alone makes the music of Nardi interesting and exciting[..]Fretless BassistLa Mannaknows how to play, capitvating[..] with the characteristic Glissando and rumbling notes[..]Roberto Segato is an excellent accompanist on piano, keyboards and synth[..]Zac Baker is perhaps the least prominent musician in the group sound, but that's just his strength again[..]The musicians complement each other very well, nowhere is an ego-laid egg[..] I am off with most of ethno-jazz, but The Tarot album is an album that I listen with pleasure in its entirety, without being moments of boredom or overfed. There are plenty of rests, fine introductions head and tail compositions, dynamics and excellent sound (recording) quality." :: iO PAGES Prog Rock Music Magazine (Netherlands) N.114 – April 2013 "Elias Nardi is an oud specialist and he is accompanied by a rock instrumentation.The main combination is with[…]fretless bass player and fellow composer Carlo La Manna,but the atmospheric sounds of roberto Segato's piano and synth are also important building blocks for this concept album[…]progressive and jazzy touches alongside classical and world music brands.This is Cinematic Ethno-Jazz for gourmets.” |
