Jimmy Heath BIg Band: Live at the Blue Note
Attraverso un magistrale lavoro di variazione dei brani, le composizioni originali del sassofonista sono riproposte sotto forma di un cangiante affresco musicale coerente ed unitario. Emergono gustosi giochi di chase tra le sezioni fiati all'insegna della gioia di suonare e condividere forti emozioni musicali. Si impone come sempre la raffinata scrittura del leader, ricca di livelli espressivi differenti sino a coprire un arco espressivo a lui congeniale, tra il linguaggio post-bop ed aromi latini. Tra i solisti, oltre ad Heath, spiccano Antonio Hart, Charles Davis e Roy Hargrove.
