With their compositions saxophonist @Stefan Gottfried and guitarist @Gabriele di Franco create besides through composed passages as much space as possible for creativity, spontaneous joy of playing and improvisation. Stylistically, they meander between their idols Kenny Wheeler, Wayne Shorter and others, an admiring fascination for impressionistic music and their curiosity for improvised music. Since they got to know each other in Vienna more than three years ago, a lot has happened. They both changed their environment, Gabriele moved to Brussels, Stefan to the Netherlands, in which they quickly found each other again. The Austrian saxophonist and the Italian guitarist quickly found their congenial musical partners in the Spanish pianist Raúl Santana, the Brussels based bassist Diederik Billiet and the Portuguese drummer João Sousa. Five musicians whose roots couldn’t be more different, find each other to pursue a musical idea in developing the sound of the band.
