Canto has received very positive reviews all over.

Recently form UK:
"..quietly brilliant Danish- Italian trio. ..In this often rarefied atmosphere, atomised electro-acoustic sounds combine in perfect synchronicity, creating a stunning series of oneiric and almost Miro-esque sound worlds. Rewriting the rules of contemporary chamber jazz, Solborg’s music is as vital today as Joe McPhee’s Po Music ensembles of the 90s."
- Fred Grand - JazzJournal.UK

Italy:
This seems to be the three musicians’ most direct goal: proposing a vital experience, making music that can’t forget sound (in its acoustic properties) and listening, both internal (oneself) and external (the others) […] This music, albeit essential, is extremely rich and adorned, has refined structural elements and occupies the sonic space in a way that is as discreet as it is persistent – Sandro Cerini, Musica Jazz

Bandcamp:
This music here is an electric current. Its sound is subdued, but its presence radiates a power that’s as likely to deliver a gentle shock as brighten the room with its warmth. The trio of pianist Emanuele Maniscalco, guitarist Mark Solborg, and woodwind instrumentalist Francesco Bigoni have previously displayed a talent for amplifying whispers for impact. Their latest keeps to that winning formula – Dave Sumner, The Best Jazz on Bandcamp: June 2022

about

With a buzz in our ears, we sing our way through the cantos of a new book. Shout – or whisper – our musical poetry into a spacious realm of warm analog keyboards, strings and reeds, flooded with subtle electronics, granular processing and microtonality. Interwoven contemporary chamber music tableaux are carefully folded into a unique multilayered electroacoustic blend – grandiose and yet intimate.

Maniscalco/Bigoni/Solborg navigate freely with and around original materials. This is about improvising as a unit while honouring or challenging the idea of a song. To instantly react to each other and create chamber-like music with a strong presence, that bridges melodic poetry and contemporary abstraction. This music does not care about genre or style. It is essentially about musical conversation and made for ears interested in dialogue.

The Danish/Italian trio has worked their musical approach intensely for a decade. The results can be heard on its two prior albums, praised internationally by audience and critics. With CANTO, the three musicians bring their work and musical approach into a new crisp territory.

This record feels really fresh. The blend of various dreamlike textures, rhythms and overall flow of ideas is very captivating all the while never feels overloaded. It is somewhat like a daydream. Really a satisfying listen and a meaningful discovery to me! drumdave11
