Fabrizio Bosso Spiritual Trio
WELCOME BACK
The Spiritual Trio is one of Fabrizio Bosso‘s most fascinating projects, in which the trumpeter, along with organist Alberto Marsico and drummer Alessandro Minetto, pays homage to Black music, expressed in its Gospel and Spiritual forms.
Founded about fifteen years ago with a repertoire rooted in Black folk tradition, over the years and through their recordings, the trio has chosen to explore that world, continually expanding it, in search of a repertoire—both traditional and modern—in which they can best express themselves. In “Welcome Back,” their research includes songs that, while not derived from the Spiritual tradition, can be reinterpreted in that vein and, above all, be appreciated in the Trio’s now unmistakable sound; thus, we will find Billy Preston’s “You are so Beautiful,” as well as Bernard Hermann’s “Theme from Taxi Driver” and Horace Silver’s “The Preacher.”
