Cronosisma

According to the great American writer Kurt Vonnegut, a "Cronosisma" is a catastrophic event in which the universe has a crisis of self-confidence and decides to stop its expansion and go back ten years. "Cronosisma" is the title of the new album by saxophonist Marco Cerri Ciommei, his first under his name, featuring Giacomo Ancillotto on guitar, Luca Venitucci on piano, and Marco Zenini on double bass. The music on the album has survived for years, hidden in a virtual drawer, continuously evolving but always remaining true to itself. First sketches, then pieces, and finally real music, it became an album precisely because of its disregard for the passage of time. In writing it, there was only one rule: to ignore (as much as possible) contemporaneity. Not out of nostalgia, but perhaps because keeping up with the times is the fastest way to grow old.Time and memory are at the heart of the entire project, which, through melody, seeks a sound that exists in the present but possesses the evocative power that only the past and future can hold. "A poor memory," answered Gil Evans to a young Heather Parisi in one of the many editions of Fantastico. "A poor memory" was the response to the common question: "How do you stay so young?" When asked for clarification, he promptly explained: "A poor memory means no chronic stress." It means always being in the present, and thus outside of time -or at least trying to be.
