A sophisticated Italian pianist, Stefano Battaglia is known for his atmospheric, richly textured brand of jazz and classical. Building upon the work of artists like Keith Jarrett, Bill Evans, and Cecil Taylor, Battaglia emerged to acclaim in the 1980s and has collaborated with a range of jazz musicians from Kenny Wheeler and Lee Konitz to Barre Phillips and his frequent collaborator, bassist Paolino Dalla Porta.

Along with the jazz canon, Battaglia has played the music of classical composers, including works by Bach, Scarlatti, Händel, Ligeti, and others. He has made numerous appearances at European festivals and has recorded regularly for the Splasc(h) and ECM labels, issuing albums like 1995's Unknown Flames: Live in Sienna, 2006's Raccolto, and 2017's Pelagos.

Serge, very nice discovery for me

Indeed inspiration from Bill Evans and Keith Jarrett, I would also add with a pinch of Jacques Loussier... but in his very own way

Also with the excellent Aldo Romano on Drums.

Listening to the Vol. 1 & 2 version via Qobuz and the HD650s

We'll keep this one for a late night session

I enjoyed this album this morning. Misha Mullov-Abbado. Son of Viktoria Mullova (classical violinist).

Misha is a fine jazz bassist. All music composed by Misha himself.
