Katharsis was born in 2020 from the meeting of three musicians and long-time friends who had been playing together for years in different contexts (BlueRing Improvisers among others) and decided to bring together their mutual influences in a stable formation. The trio aims to reconcile European jazz, contemporary textures and impromptu composition, creating fragile but intense music, instinctively controlled and made consistent by the deep contact between the musicians.
Spring 2024 marks the Italian/Belgian tour presenting their album “People and Places” (Aut Records 2022) consisting only of original pieces written specifically for this formation by the three musicians, which received positive reviews from Italian and international press.
