This project represents all of Giuseppe Di Maio and both his personal and musical evolution. The latter always included listening to all genres, but it began from studying classical music, subsequently enriched by studies of jazz varieties. This allowed him to express his feelings through music, which in this case were stirred up by eight of F. Chopin?s marvellous preludes (op.28 n?1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 11, 20, 21). These preludes inspired the compositions and improvisations on this record. Each track begins with one of the original preludes ? performed either partly or entirely ? which then evolves according to the specific melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic characteristics of each work of the Polish composer. Such diverse elements gave life to the emotions engraved in this record through different musical writing and improvisation of the musical language of the 20th century, such as bossa nova, choro, and swing.
