Ankündigung: “Faded Gardens”, der neue Longplayer von Gabriele Baldocci, erscheint am 16. Januar digital bei MKMA Records. Der Klavierzyklus bezieht sich auf frühe Erinnerungen und auf Erfahrungen als Vater. Vom Künstler selbst heißt es: “Faded Gardens is an intimate cycle of piano works inspired by childhood, both my own and that of my son. 
It unfolds through two intertwined perspectives: the child I once was, marked by illness, solitude, and music as my only escape, and the father I am now, rediscovering wonder and healing through my son’s eyes. At the heart of the album lies the Trilogy of Becoming: three pieces that revisit the defining hospital experience of my childhood. At the age of seven I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that, at that time, little was known about. I was kept in hospital for long stretches and remained isolated for many years to come, cut off from the outside world and profoundly marked by the experience”.
