Leo Genovese on CD

2013 album from the Argentinean pianist. In less than a decade's time, Leonardo Genovese has already established a solid reputation as an instrumentalist and composer who is not afraid to explore the lesser known corners of the musical landscape. Seeds showcases his ability to move effortlessly between the melodic and the chromatic and celebrate the inherent mystery and beauty in each. Since 2005, he has toured with Grammy winning bassist and vocalist Esperanza Spalding throughout the U.S., South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and elsewhere. Spalding returns the favor by providing vocals on numerous tracks on Seeds. In addition, she also assists on the songwriting on 'Portuguese Mirror' one of the most satisfying tracks on the 11-song set. Genovese is also accompanied by his core trio of tenor saxophonist Dan Blake, acoustic bassist John Lockwood, and drummer Bob Gulloti - a collective whom the keyboardist and bandleader affectionately refers to as the Chromatic Gauchos.
