Gregg Bendian's Trio Pianissimo: Change
A dispetto di quanto la denominazione del trio lasci supporre, prevale nel disco un andamento vibrante e magnetico del flusso sonoro. Che pur costituito in larga misura da gustose soluzioni informali, lascia anche spazio alle progressioni armoniche delicate e rarefatte (“Glancing”), fino a citare il camerismo europeo. Ci sono poi le annunciate virate in pianissimo, ma è il brano finale ("Torrents") a connotare la cifra stilistica di questa formazione, grazie ad un travolgente caleidoscopio di marca espressionista. Dove riluce a tutto tondo il drumming irregolare e frammentato del leader.
