Bassist Furio Di Castri is no stranger to TJF audiences. In honor of the 30th anniversary of the death of Frank Zappa (1940-1993), he pays tribute to the master with Zapping. Original pieces and reworkings of jazz classics the way Zappa himself would have done it. An endless array of sound sparks in a mix of multiform styles. A musical project that bucks the system of genres and categories, a rediscovery of the extreme detours that only an artist like Frank Zappa could drive down. Di Castri and his new group forge a personal reconstruction of a hypothetical world, where jazz and soul grooves come face-to-face with Zappa’s transgression and humor. They build unexpected bridges that connect a mishmash of music lodged in the back of our minds.
