Nice album, a lot of variety... a number of the compostions have an orchestral feel.
Marcelli is a drummer and keyboardist, but the emphasis is on his (yeah, Andrea is a "He", lol )compositions, and the input of numerous guest jazz musicians ( Ralph Towner, Holdsworth, Gary Thomas, Kei Akagi,Mike Maineri, Gary Willis, Mitch Forman, etc.)

That's what hit me --we all know he can play millions of lovely fluid notes, but here he keeps it spare - and knows just the right evocative notes to hit....(love those deep notes, by the way!!!)
