Nicola Sergio Trio "In Nomine Melodiae"

I have always compared the Melody to a goddess of irresistible charm. You can recognize the Melody from afar. She comes to seek us by taking us into a timeless reality of inner well-being. Certain melodies can even change our life, marking our existence forever, like a sort of "perfume". This project is a variable repertoire trilogy in homage to the melodies that have shaped me the most and to the sensitive souls who wrote them. On the occasion of this concert at the Sunside, I wanted to highlight certain melodies by drawing inspiration from the "Jazz" repertoire, by creating a kind of generational bridge that goes from Bud Powell to Bill Evans, from Coltrane to Jobim, from Kenny Wheeler to Tom Harrell, to Fred Hersch, Giovanni Mirabassi, Stefano Di Battista and more. Because time, yes, it passes ... but there is always something that survives it ... eternally .... "In nomine Mélodiae".
