Save Me Not CD / Album

One afternoon in late November, 2019, Argentinian cellist, composer and producer Sebastian Plano woke from a short nap in his Berlin apartment. Switching his phone on, he was overwhelmed by a tsunami of texts, and his inbox, too, was swamped with emails. Scrolling through them, he discovered each offered congratulations, but the reason remained a mystery. Finally, he stumbled on the first message, which explained the tributes: his most recent album, 'Verve', had been nominated for a Grammy. Recorded at nights in his Berlin studio, 'Save Me Not', finds him going to unprecedented, even greater extremes to satisfy his urge to express himself through the creation of ensemble music alone. Bending - and often rejecting - in seductively enigmatic style the principles with which the classically trained musician was raised, 'Save Me Not' pursues Plano's pioneering, ethereal aesthetic with even more confidence, operating in a dream-world all its own, answerable only to his instincts.
