AP presents here his new work with a new quartet.
The album ‘Nu’ is a musical experiment that, among other things, explores melodic simplicity, formal rigour or contrasting atmospheres and textures, groove and free improvisation, in a musical quest that always aims to achieve freshness and unpredictability. AP’s music is presented here, as the album’s name suggests, stripped of accessories or artefacts, but full of the same content and depth that distinguishes the most enlightened, mature and consistent musical works.
‘Nu’ is the work of a musician and composer who is increasingly faithful to his musical truth. It is the work of a quartet that is attentive to new trends and currents, but never abandons its essence. It’s composition, improvisation and musical execution imbued with the natural proficiency of those who know what they’re doing.
