¥2,096

イット・ウォウント・ビー・レイト/ロッサーノ・バルディーニ

飽和する美意識と倦怠、深い静寂、ミニマリズム、20世紀印象派の記憶、モーダル、行き先のない現代のエレジー、追憶の中に広がる薄明のシーナリー、そして未来への祈り。イタリア映画音楽の偉大なる功績を今に伝える<オルケストラ・イタリアーナ・デル・チネマ>の常任ピアニスト、ロッサーノ・バルディーニ(p)による、自己名義初にしてすでに自身の世界観を十二分に発揮するピアノ・ソロ作品。

Saturated aesthetics and “ennui”, a deep silence, memory of impressionism in the past century, minimalism, modal Jazz, lost elegy, dim scenery in the gray dawn, and hope for the future.
“It Won’t Be Late” is a deep poetic musical journey led by young but artistically matured Roman pianist Rossano Baldini who is currently regular member of the prestigious “Orchestra Italiana del Cinema”. Close your eyes and the music flows as if performed in chamber orchestra, then we recognize there’s only a man and his piano on the stage.

serai手垢のついていない、みずみずしく、詩情豊かなピアノ・アルバムを見つけた。イタリアのピアニスト、ロッサーノ・バルディーニの『イット・ウォウント・ビー・レイト』だ。
彼は幼い頃からクラシック、ジャズ、ブルース、そして作曲に傾倒。ローマの名門サンタ・チェチーリア音楽院のピアノ科を修了したのち渡米、ベートーヴェンのピアノ・ソナタ第32番の変奏曲についての研究を行ったという。現在はジャズやロックや映画音楽の世界で幅広く活躍している。
そんな経歴が納得できるほどに、このピアノは精緻な作曲センスを感じさせる。ジャズを基本にしながらも、ベートーヴェンやブラームスの晩年を思わせる内省的世界へと聴き手を誘ってくれる。どの楽曲も孤独な雰囲気だが、不思議に希望を感じさせてくれる。大人がひとりで過ごす大切な時間に、うってつけの1枚である。(林田 直樹/サライ2012年11月号)

 

cdj交響楽団“オルケストラ・イタリアーナ・デル・チネマ”などで活躍するイタリアのジャズ・ピアニスト、ロッサーノ・バルディーニのピアノ・ソロ作品。セロニアス・モンク、コルトレーンなどの曲と自作曲を演奏した。リリシズム漂う内省的なピアノ演奏が印象に残る。

 

“Ho trovato un disco di pianoforte puro, fresco e poetico: è “It Won’t Be Late” di un pianista italiano, Rossano Baldini. Sin da piccolo, Baldini si è appassionato alla musica classica, al jazz, al blues e alla composizione. In seguito, si è laureato in pianoforte presso il Conservatorio “S. Cecilia” di Roma; poi, prima di trasferirsi negli Stati Uniti, si è laureato al DAMS di Roma Tre, con tesi su Beethoven e le variazioni della Sonata per Pianoforte Op. 111. Attualmente ha varie collaborazioni in diversi ambiti, non solo nel jazz, ma anche nel rock e nelle colonne sonore. Il suono del pianoforte di Baldini risente di tutte queste varie e profonde esperienze, così come la sua precisa capacità compositiva. La sua musica, sempre con uno sguardo jazzistico, porta l’ascoltatore in un mondo intimo, che ci ricorda gli ultimi anni di vita di Beethoven e Brahms. In solitudine, ma con speranza. Un disco che vorremmo ascoltare quando si è quieti e da soli.”

“I found out a pure, bright and poetic piano record: it is “It Won’t Be Late” by an italian pianist, Rossano Baldini. Since his childhood, Baldini was fond of classical music, jazz, blues and musical composition. Later, he graduated in piano at the “S. Cecilia” Conservatory of Music in Rome; then, before moving to the United States, he graduated from DAMS (Disciplines of Arts, Music and Performing Arts) from “Roma Tre” University of Rome, with a concluding essay on Beethoven’s variations in the Piano Sonata Op. 111. Currently, he has several collaborations not only in the jazz arena, but also with rock and soundtracks artist. The sound of Baldini’s piano is influenced by all these different and profound experiences, as well as its precise compositional skills. His music, always jazz oriented, takes the listener to an intimate world that reminds us of the last Beethoven and Brahms years. In solitude, but with hope. A record that we would like to hear when we are calm and alone.” - Serai (Sep/Oct 2012), by Naoki Hayashida.
