Grindelwald Forest / Switzerland
«Which instruments is nature using to play?»
Vincenzo Sponga
— Same forest, same place: but which different things can this environment tell us that has not inspired us yet, in the previous years? We were wondering about this while driving to Switzerland – me driving and Gabriele trying to sketch ideas on his album, as we always use to. But this time it was all useless: to welcome us there were only a powerful shower and a very freezing air, which produced music and music and music! Drops of music sparked by a magical, invisible piano that we created using trunks recovered in the forest and transformed to create a magical keyboard.
