Tuba Libre
   Giancarlo Schiaffini (tuba)

From Italy's pre-eminent brass master, Giancarlo Schiaffini, Tuba Libre is a monumental testimony to the sonorous possibilities of the tuba.  Long known for his trombone work with groups like the Italian Instabile Orchestra, he has also been playing the tuba for more than two decades.  On his first solo recording and first in which he plays exclusively tuba, Giancarlo paints a backdrop with electronics over which he performs with extraordinary virtuosity and emotional depth.  Comes with our highest recommendation for extended deep listening.

“Through-out, the emphasis is on silence and the single tone: the magic of the moment.  This is a recording to be listened to closely; the results are in the details, in the nuances of time.” – Steven A. Loewy, from the liner notes
