Arrigo Cappelletti Quintet: Hot Music
By Track review of "Isafyordur 1"Cappelletti's guileful "Isafyordur 1" commences with bassist Adrian Myhr's edgy arco phrasings setting the stage for a sequence of flourishing thematic intervals, subsided by moments of restraint. The pianist subsequently aligns classical inferences with lush jazz phrasings but creates breathing room as the hornists intersect and provide shadings, while Cappelletti assumes a command and control role and builds a theme on a linear ostinato. Moreover, he delicately drives the momentum into a series of mini-motifs, casting an emotional roller coaster ride. Otherwise, Cappelletti's skillfully engineered arrangements caress numerous inferences of the jazz vernacular. It's an album that should not go unnoticed.
