Small Band: First Flight

Read "First Flight" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


I due leader della Small Band - il pianista Marco Contardi e il drummer Pierluigi Villani - affidano gran parte delle sorti del loro First Flight a cinque fiatisti: quattro sax (soprano, alto, tenore, baritono) e una tromba.

On the aptly named First Flight, the inaugural recording as leader of his own big band, Pete McGuinness does almost everything except drive the band bus and clean up the studio afterward--and I wouldn't doubt that he did that as well. McGuinness wrote six of the album's nine tunes, arranged them all, crafts likable trombone solos ...
