BIF

BIF is an Italian jazz trio known for their fluid interplay and genre-blurring soundscapes. Formed by bassist Giuseppe Bassi, drummer Francesco Ciniglio, and pianist Alessandro Lanzoni, the group blends post-bop energy with contemporary classical textures and Mediterranean folk influences. Their recent releases—like *Solo*, *Pessoa*, and *Nicole*—showcase a knack for balancing structured compositions with spontaneous improvisation, often leaning into cinematic moods and poetic titles referencing literature or Italian landscapes (see *Fontana delle Rose* or *Cilento*). The inclusion of *Imprevisti (Live in Studio)* highlights their love for raw, in-the-moment creativity, while tracks like *Nodi* and *Teorie* reveal a refined chemistry honed through years of collaboration. BIF’s work feels equally at home in jazz clubs, art galleries, or film scores, appealing to listeners who dig exploratory acoustic trios like The Bad Plus or EST.
