André Mehmari - Notturno 20-21 (2021) [Official Digital Download]

Miraculously prolific, André Mehmari has practically one record recorded for every year of his life. Each of these more than 40 albums counts; it is difficult to choose from the multiple and varied facets of such an eclectic musical talent, which does not cease to surprise us when it seems to us that he has already done everything – and in every possible instrument, imaginable and imaginary.

Notturno 20>21 (no typo: the title is like that, in Italian) stands out as one of the most introspective of its entire trajectory. Mehmari is alone, at the piano, who has always accompanied him. And he shares with us musical ideas crystallized in sleepless nights of the dark times that plague us. The times are nightmarish; the music that springs from them, however, is not. On the contrary: it is a song that reaffirms our right to dream. "Music of survival", in the happy expression that he borrows from one of his idols, Egberto Gismonti. It is also a kind of small book by André Mehmari, a sound block of notes in which, alongside his compositions, he finally shares with the world references that he used to play and record on intimate occasions, but without deciding to bring to the public.
