Antonio Torrini: Avicenne Jazz Project
Le sue idee armoniche e ritmiche si basano su un jazz di marca europea, com´è tipico per tante formazioni italiane. Il disco si apprezza per il contrabbasso del leader sempre pronto a lanciare delle linee melodiche molto interessanti, per il sax soprano di Laraia che usa un suono molto aperto, lontano da quelle che sono i canoni estetici americani. Senza ovviamente dimenticare l'apporto degli altri, ben gestiti da una scrittura ed una direzione degna di nota. Nelle lunghe esecuzioni tutto funziona come un mosaico perfetto.
