Five years after his last album, “The mathematics of branches“, Max Gazzè restarts his recording career with an announcement built outside the box. The new album, “L'ornamento delle cose secondarie”, will be released on May 15th via Sony Music. To present it, Gazzè has chosen a short film shared on social media, made together with actress Claudia Pandolfi. In just over a minute, the video steers clear of the traditional promotional formula, instead building a suspended scene poised between everyday life and paradox, where the announcement becomes an integral part of the narrative.

The record brings together twenty tracks and unfolds along a production line geared towards experimentation. Among its distinctive features is the use of 432 Hz tuning, a choice that reflects a specific attention to sound rendering and listening perception. Within this framework, the songwriting once again moves across multiple layers, recovering a dimension in which the song form opens up to less conventional solutions.
“L’ornamento delle cose secondarie” thus falls in line with Gazzè's artistic trajectory, once again placing his profile as musician and songwriter at the centre, with an approach that favours sonic research and construction.
Pre-orders are already open here.
