Description:

"Beyond the Illusionâ? is the new album by the keyboardist Stefano Panunzi. A Roman musician who has been working on his own for more than a decade, Panunzi imbues his albums with strong instrumental echoes that refer directly to the work of Jansen, Barbieri & Karn, Porcupine Tree, No-Man, and King Crimson's ProjeKCts series. "Beyond the Illusion" is a moody collage of progressive influences: a work rooted between art rock and ambient jazz, cinematic soundscape and alternative rock. On his third solo album, consisting of 12 tracks (on CD, and 9 on LP), Panunzi teamed up with internationally renowned artists, whom he enthusiastically directed: GRICE, Tim Bowness (No-Man), Monica Canfora, Nicola Lori (Fijeri), Cristiano Capobianco, Lorenzo Feliciati (Pat Mastellotto, Roy Powell, Colin Edwin), Fabio Fraschini (Novembre, Il Volo), Ivan Ricchiuto, Luca Calabrese (Isildurs Bane, Richard Barbieri), Mike Applebaum (Ennio Morricone, Jovanotti, Zucchero), Mike Bearpark (Tim Bowness, No-Man), Yuri Croscenko, Davide Alivernini, Gavin Harrison (Porcupine Tree, King Crimson, The Pineapple Thief) and Dario Vero (orchestrator, conductor and soundtrack composer). Among the tracks are "The Bench", dedicated to the late pen pal Mick Karn of Japan (he played on Panunzi's first two solo albums); "I Go Deeper", written with Tim Bowness and included in another version on the latter's solo album, "Flowers at the Scene" (2019); and all those sung by the voice of GRICE (born Martin Grice Charles Peters). -
