about

His technical control, accuracy and facility on the bass are terrific. With his music he creates new directions where the tradition is a springboard.” Herbie Hancock

“Luca’s music is Art on the highest level. It’s poetic and has vision into the future.” Jerry Bergonzi


On October 9, 2019, bassist and composer Luca Alemanno released his debut album, I Can See Home from Here on Workin’ Label. The album features seven original compositions brought to life by a sextet of international musicians, including alto saxophonist Miguel Zenon (Puerto Rico), trombonist Jon Hatamiya (California), vibraphonist Simon Moullier (France), pianist Isaac Wilson (California) and drummer Jongkuk Kim (South Korea). The record also features Alemanno’s solo bass interpretation of Hoagy Carmichael’s “Stardust.”

The compositional ideas reflect the curiosity and nostalgia of those who live thousands of miles from home, often surrounded by a culture that has yet to be explored. Alemanno’s music embodies the complex identities of contemporary improvised music, connecting melodies of Italian lyricism to African American-inspired rhythms, and drawing from the harmonies of contemporary composers and the Second Viennese School.

Conceptually, I Can See Home From Here explores shifting impressions of home. Navigating between continents and cultures of Los Angeles, New York, Rome, and his hometown of Alessano, Italy, Alemanno’s music explores concepts of cultural identity, community and independence. In sharing his process of redefining home, Alemanno hopes to evoke introspection among listeners in their travels around the globe.

The official video for the title track, “I Can See Home From Here” was made by Hermes Mangialardo.
