PAOLO ANGELI & ORIOL ROCA

Paolo Angeli and Oriol Roca started playing together almost ten years ago with the experimental trio Piccola Orchestra Gagarin. Through these years they have built a complicity that allows them to go anywhere they like, creating a palette of super-saturated colors and unbelievably varied textures.

The musical universe coming out from Angeli’s uniquely prepared Sardinian guitar make him one of the most creative musicians in our days. Collaborator of Fred Frith, Evan Parker or Hamid Drake, Angeli melts so naturally with Roca’s melodic, complex and subtly surprising approach to drums and percussion.

Each concert is a non planned journey in which destination is not important, the path is what matters to them. Their music is essentially a celebration of freedom.

“Paolo Angeli, que je suis depuis quelques années maintenant, ici il a trouvé un complice à sa mesure: Oriol Roca est un batteur énergique et créatif.” Joël Plagier, Jazzman Magazine (FR)
