Giovanni Di Domenico/Arve Henriksen/Tatsuhisa Yamamoto - Clinamen

Arve Henriksen : Trumpet, Voice Giovanni Di Domenico : Piano, Fender Rhodes, Electronics Tatsuhisa Yamamoto : Drums, Percussions. Pianist/composer Giovanni Di Domenico formed this trio because of the extremely special quality of the sound he wanted to achieve within a musical group, and the choice of the musicians involved in it is extremely related to that special quality. Clinamen, in ancient roman philosopher Lucretius’s ‘De Rerum Natura’, is the magic force that makes an atom to change direction during it’s fall and thus be able to hit other atoms and ‘create’ Energy and Life.It’s not a law, it happens by ‘chance’… This new exploratory musical unit takes inspiration from Lucretius’s theory to create melodies and sound scapes, to play with the inner and most special matter of the “sound” of each and all of the 3 members. Di Domenico’s open compositions will be integrated by Henriksen’s
and Yamamoto’s extreme transparent approachto their instrument, making them breath and have an extra special quality. Giovanni Di Domenico : Born in Rome(Italy) in 1977. He lives currently in Brussels, Belgium. He had the chance(and still does...) to play in many different countries where he could meet musicians as: Alexandra Grimal, Manolo Cabras, Oriol Roca, Joao Lobo, Ernesto Snajer, Diego Alejandro, Chris Jennings, Anne Paceo, Daysuke Takaoka,Tatsuya Nakamura,Ken-Ichi Matsumoto,Yuki Saga,Satoshi Hironaka,Mori-Shige,Eivind Lonning,Espen Reinertsen and many many others.
