TAKABANDA eXtended

In 2006 the new CD-production „TAKABANDA X“ orginates from a cooperation with the Berlin broadcasting station Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (rbb).
The original line-up of the group is extended by three further musicians: Antonello Marafioti (piano), Roland Komitow (baritone-, tenorsaxophone, clarinet) and Nesin Howhannesijan (double bass), who replaces former bassist Akira Ando.

"The harmonic support of Antonello Marafioti at the piano adds a new timbre to the band's sound. The expressive saxophone style of Roland Komitow further extends the musical dimension. I regard Takabanda X as the ideal line-up to create in our music a balance between timbre, harmony and energy."
Paolo Eleodori
