Gian Tornatore: Fall
Terzo CD da leader per Tornatore, che non riesce tuttavia a far decollare del tutto questo progetto di sintesi, sebbene infiorato da pregevoli assoli. È una musica sin troppo radicata nella tradizione moderna del jazz e non basta l'aggiunta della chitarra a rivitalizzare la pratica coltraniana, ossequiata nelle composizioni originali del leader, che guarda anche alla migliore vena compositiva di Pat Metheny. Piace il sound collettivo del suo quintetto, che benché impeccabile, trasmette l'immarcescibile carica artistica di Coltrane. Un linguaggio appena rinvigorito dalle linee melodiche e ritmiche dell'odierno jazz metropolitano.
