Rossano Snel
Jazz / Contemporary / World
Brazilian-born, Berlin-based pianist Rossano Snel, whose cinematic music reached Deutsche Grammophon, meets saxophone and bassoon on the lyrical trio album Sketches of Tallinn.
Born in Brazil and based in Berlin, Rossano Snel is a self-taught pianist and composer working with lush harmonies, minimalism, Brazilian influences and cinematic soundscapes. His music drifts along the blurred edges of melancholy and ecstasy, of dream and disquiet, with a heightened sensitivity toward the subtle and the hauntingly beautiful. His work has found its way into more than twenty productions - feature films, TV series, documentaries and installations for HBO, Netflix, Universal Pictures, arte, ZDF and TV Globo, and art spaces such as KW Contemporary in Berlin - and in 2024 his piano piece "Sunday 23" was released by Deutsche Grammophon. On his album "Sketches of Tallinn," three voices meet in the quiet resonance of the Estonian capital: Snel's piano, Marcelo Politano's tenor saxophone and overtone flute, and Francesco Russo's bassoon. Born of Brazilian roots and shaped by jazzy harmonies, the album pairs Snel's compositions with the improvisational flow of his two collaborators - Politano, a Brazilian-Italian composer and multi-instrumentalist with deep ties to Latin American traditions, and Russo, an Italian bassoonist and improviser pursuing doctoral research on extended bassoon techniques at the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre.
