Buy album:
corpos is the first album by the Barcelona-based trio, formed by pianist Clara Lai, double bassist Àlex Reviriego and drummer Oriol Roca.
The music of this album explores collective construction in trio format, visiting different sound zones, compositional possibilities and improvisational languages. Music that is energetic but also contemplative, aleatoric, some noise and silence, coexist with melodic sketches.
Pieces as sound bodies that find unity through embracing their diversity.
Clara Lai – piano
Àlex Reviriego – double bass
Oriol Roca – drums
All compositions by Clara Lai. Music by Oriol Roca, Àlex Reviriego and Clara Lai on tracks 1 and 3
