MANSION HOUSE is a music group based in London that loves making instrumental music. His organic is composed by Flute Clarinet (also Bass) Sax (Alto e Soprano) Trombone Violin Viola Cello Guitar (classic and electric) Bass Piano Vibraphone (also Glockenspiel) and Drums (also Percussions instruments): 12 musicians. The atmosphere of the acoustic piano together with the strings contributes to create the chamber music side of the group, where the presence of wind instruments is never dated. The double use of both classic and electric guitar makes it semi-acoustic and finally the whole group of percussions leads us to a precise and unmistakable sense of rhythm. Therefore in the whole perception of music we can feel traces of minimalism extended to all the aspects of music texture. The shadow of the stone together with the freshness of the lake water. The broken doll together with the crying woman .The daytime side of all things and their decadence. A sea gull cry and the noise of whatever day. MANSION HOUSE wants to give to all the life passion , the endless presence of life with all her irreconcilable truth. So that we are able to find also these things that each of us leaves at home or in any other place. Then the pop side of the group becomes clear to us, and more and more close to the other side, never having a conflict whatever it is. Of course it is somewhat neoromantic. The music is written by Gerardo Tristano.
