Circle was a short lived
group formed in the mid-seventies by Ruggero Tajè and Riccardo
Sinigaglia, both pupils of Angelo Paccagnini and later composers and teachers
of electronic music at Milan Conservatory. Paccagnini was one of the great post-Webern
composers, along with Luciano Berio, Bruno Maderna and Giacomo Manzoni. Ruggero
and Riccardo joined forces with their friend Roberto “Birillo” Gotta,
who played double bass in Gaetano Liguori’s group and other jazz groups coming
from the Milanese area. “Birillo” Gotta was a multi-instrumentalist, collector
of strange and self-built instruments; he was also a very well-known artist for
his works in recycled art. He died too early, at the age of 69 in 2022. This CD
contains two extended pieces of free improvisation with elements of avant-rock
and jazz and is entirely dedicated to “Birillo”.
