“Having a longstanding collaboration with Brandt Brauer Frick, when Paul sent me the album and requested a piano solo version of any track, I eagerly embraced the chance. The process was completely spontaneous as I was in Paris working on another project in the studio. We tried a few takes but in the end, the best version happened in the moment. The result is a pure live recording, unaltered by edits or re-recordings, encapsulating raw spontaneity”.

FT was part of the launch of Antony Morato’s project ‘The Sound of Unity’, which celebrates fashion and artistic expression, particularly musical expression.

‘The Sound of Unity’ is a contest aimed at finding the next great DJ. The project was developed with the guidance of Lele Sacchi. Further support is provided by two talent ambassadors who represent success stories and will serve as inspiration for the young talents taking part in the competition: DJ and producer Andrea Oliva and composer and producer Francesco Tristano, names recognised by the music scene around the world.

FT presents the short film My Riga Connection directed by Viktors Buda. 

The short film was recorded following Francesco Tristano’s return to Riga after a 26-year hiatus.

”Last summer after 26 years, I had the opportunity to return to Riga, fusing piano and electronics in a live performance. It was an emotional return as I have a hidden connection to this city”.
