Amethyst by Maddalena Ghezzi

Amethyst, the first release of Ghezzi's series Minerals, is a collaboration with double bass player Thodoris Ziarkas. Together they share the love for improvisation, plants and the natural world. Improvisation was used as a framework for composition as well as during the recording.

Minerals is a series of collaborations with musicians I love. The aim is to document a process of artistic and personal growth and to build, through the years, a compilation of meaningful exchanges and an anthology of notes of my processes. Each work will be released at random intervals, whenever the ground is right for another collaboration to sprout.
