Sebastiano Dessanay UK Quartet - Restless Dreams (2018)


Restless Dreams is the latest album by Sebastiano Dessanay, which features his UK Quartet with Fulvio Sigurtà on trumpet, Bruno Heinen on piano and James Bashford on drums. 

The album took a long time to be conceived and realised, and it includes all original compositions by Sebastiano, some of which are rearranged tunes from his chamber opera The Cry of the Double Bass (www.thecryofthedoublebass.co.uk). 

Restless Dreams was beautifully recorded in Cagliari at janeStudios by American sound engineer Marti Jane Robertson. The cover photos are by Francesca Ardau and the stunning cover artwork by Giampaolo Gerra.
