We are in a transition period, between the end of Assemblaggi Provvisori and the launch of the new project for 2018. A period of noisy calm in which the lull is only apparent and silent sounds nestle in the sea of developing ideas. In this magma, filaments of unfinished projects resurface and return to fill up the spaces at Scompiglio. Some, more insistent than others, perhaps because they are only just touched on, impose their presence and direct us towards places not unknown to us, such as “Made in Italy 3x1”, which in this case manifests itself through the visionary talent of the great pianist Antonello Salis, or “John Cage: 4’33’’ Lezione sui funghi”, which takes us to a new awareness of sound-tone through the magnificent world of percussion by young percussionists conducted by Antonio Caggiano.

Antonello Salis, who is not averse to sharing a stage with other musicians, here presents himself as a soloist, alternating between accordion and piano.
Salis defines himself as “a servant of music”, wanting somehow to mark out a boundary with that self-referential music world that is alien to him, and point to a road filled with passion and love for his work that has led him to live a life of continuous research.
Throughout his rich career, Salis has collaborated with extraordinary musicians, including Don Cherry, Lester Bowie, Cecil Taylor, Pat Metheny, Paolo Fresu, Michele Rabbia, Stefano Bollani.
