 Continuing the research from his last release, ‘Dantesca’, virtuoso saxophonist and brilliant composer Luigi Grasso presents ‘La Dimora Dell’Altrove’, a captivating musical 
journey that explores the profound themes of belonging and identity through the lens of duality - Heimweh (the nostalgia for one’s homeland) and Fernweh (the desire for exploration).
 Commissioned by the NDR (Norddeutscher Rundfunk), this opus features the unique characters of each soloists of the Big Band along a variety of aesthetics, from jazz, 
rock, Latin and contemporary music. The melding of these themes symbolizes the intertwining of cultural identities, emphasizing a rich tapestry of experiences that defines 
our sense of home.
 ‘La Dimora Dell’Altrove’ goes beyond mere musical composition; it serves as a manifesto of hope and unity. It challenges us to reflect on the true meaning of home, recognizing that, in our pursuit of place and identity, we can find a sense of affinity that transcends cultural and physical boundaries. Music, in this context, emerges as a universal language that embraces diversity, encouraging us to welcome differences rather than fear them.
