more information

“Gemma Galeano is one of the very few musicians I know that are active in both fields, classical music and free improvisation, on a high level. Her improvisations are always fresh and surprising, never following the expected but the heartful risk of her own intensions. She has grown a sound that is intriguing and crosses easily body & mind of the attentive listeners. It makes me happy to hear her – a member of the youngest generation that is following the path of many traditions without neglecting her own strong musical personality.” Omri Ziegele
