Noah Preminger: Dry Bridge Road

AAJ Italy Staff By AAJ Italy Staff

View read count
Dry Bridge Road rappresenta il primo CD da leader del ventiduenne Noah Preminger, sassofonista dalle indiscutibili doti strumentali e compositive. Un disco dalla vivace ricchezza ritmico-armonica, che prelude ad una ragguardevole carriera, se si considera l'autorevole piglio esecutivo nello spaziare tra free forms, atmosfere bop e cool.

Con qualche gustosa combinazione timbrica tra sax e chitarra, le dieci tracce rivelano una costruzione sonora mai adagiata su soluzioni monolitiche, in favore di un flusso quanto mai sfaccettato.

Rimangono comunque forti i rimandi stilistici ai maestri della tradizione sassofonistica del jazz, che rendono questo solista molto spigliato e dal facile eloquio, ma non ancora leader autentico data la giovane età.

Al suo fianco una ritmica di granitica propulsione e musicisti di altissimo livello quali Frank Kimbrough, Ben Monder, Ted Poor e John Hebert. Artisti in gran spolvero, per impreziosire il disco di tanta tecnica, intensità ed esperienza.
