Richard Galliano – Paolo Fresu – Jan Lundgren: Mare Nostrum, 20 years

What happens when you stand on the edge of the sea and look out towards the infinite horizon? You feel free and boundless, as the waves gently wash ashore. Twenty years ago, three exceptional European musicians got together to convey this feeling of freedom and security. Richard Galliano, Paolo Fresu and Jan Lundgren cover the whole stylistic spectrum, from subtle impressionism to strongly romantic features, from catchy melodic phrases to boundless vitality. It’s music that matches the completely different charisms of the three musicians, who dispense with egocentric antics and yet don’t completely renounce virtuoso exuberance. Their new album Mare Nostrum IV will follow. Come and see Mare Nostrum live in Geneva on their “20 Years Anniversary Tour”.
