Blend Pages, the latest album by pianist Enrico Zanisi, is scheduled for release on CAM JAZZ on 6 April 2018. The lineup here also features Gabriele Mirabassi on clarinet, Michele Rabbia on percussion and electronics and the French string quartet Quatuor IXI, namely Régis Huby and Clément Janinet on violin, Guillaume Roy on viola and Atsushi Sakaï on cello. After his confident display as a full-fledged piano soloist in 2016 (Piano Tales, released on CAM JAZZ), with Blend Pages Enrico Zanisi has started a fresh page on his artistic path towards freeing himself from the close relationship with the piano and moving forward into compositional explorations. Having won the Top Jazz award as the Best New Talent in 2012, Enrico Zanisi is delivering his fifth album in a period of change, driven by a wish to write chamber music by directly drawing from his classical background that he melds with improvisation and his recent electronic inspiration. Without losing sight of its influences (Ravel, Debussy, Béla Bartók, Bill Evans...), Blend Pages opens up to a larger orchestration. To this end, the Roman composer is supported by an unusual ensemble, whose members change and alternate throughout the 9 original tracks on this record.
