“As an artist, I feel the urge to expand even what I perceive as “ melody, harmony, rhythm”, all the while pursuing the aesthetic that makes appearances in my dreams. The creative forces that I most admire are those whose curiosity and courage explored new frontiers, and propel the rest of us with them- Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Wayne Shorter, Miró, Stanley Kubrick…”
Arrucci is noted for his brief, pithy introductions that take you into the mind and imagination behind the music, opening the gate to some of the most arresting new dimensions in jazz.
