Pitch, Rhythm and Consciousness: Sextet
L'album possiede un bel tono concentrato, spesso assorto, cameristico, anche allusivo, aprendosi periodicamente a soluzioni più dirette, esplicite, che dotano il tutto della necessaria varietà sul piano, appunto, delle dinamiche, peraltro con una coerenza di fondo che non viene mai meno.
Diversi i titoli che potremmo portare a supporto di quanto appena detto, da "Kush" a "Fundamental Blue," consecutivi, e poi un altro blocco, di quattro brani, compreso fra "Running in the Darkness" e "Psalm for a Shared Tomorrow" (l'ispirazione religiosa "buddista, cristiana, ebraica, taoista, indù, ecc.," ci vien detto esplicitamente, è una costante del lavoro). Alla fine se ne esce con l'impressione di esser stati testimoni di una sorta di rito collettiva di sicuro fascino e certo non avaro di momenti di musica con la M maiuscola.
