Gianluca Petrella and Cosmic Renaissance. Cosmic Renaissance is inspired by the music of Sun Ra, with whom he previously collaborated on three projects.
If you are in the latter group, prepare for a cosmic journey with the quintet shaped by Gianluca Petrella, a trombonist who has always defied labelling.
Having established his reputation and authority on Earth long ago, Petrella once again plays the role of intergalactic skipper for tourists on other planets. Get ready. Hold on tight to the slide of his trombone. Lose and find yourself in the labyrinths of black music. Forget the long-established convictions of jazz, and practice tracing new routes on the afrofuturist map that Sun Ra, Petrella’s inspiration for “Cosmic Renaissance” began to sketch in the past century.

Video recorded on 9th Feb. 2020 during the concert in Pisa.
