Numinous by Jack DeSalvo

Jack DeSalvo's music covers a lot of ground, but with this trio it's an intimate affair, melodic, often swinging yet with arching, virtuosic solos all around. This trio has been the nucleus of a number of ensembles both live and on record - Quintrepid, Zone and others. DeSalvo exclusively plays nylons string guitar here, utilizing his amazing facility that's a synthesis of classical and jazz technique. Here the music's the thing from the open Dream of the Lynx to the two swinging takes of Perhaps.The fullness is more like a piano trio but with the expressive touch of the guitar. Dmitri and Tom are deep listeners which make the music rich emotionally and powerful in its realization.

JACK DeSALVO developed his extraordinary guitar style from a deep immersion into jazz, classical guitar and his own prolific compositional output. He has studied with Bill Connors, Leonid Bolotine, Ariada Mikéshina, George Russell and at Berklee. He is a professional musician, composer, recording artist and record producer for Unseen Rain Records. He has toured the world with many jazz greats.
