Ark Ovrutski: Sounds of Brasil
Quindi non ci dobbiamo meravigliare più di tanto della ottima intesa musicale e umana che si è formata fra il bassista ucraino e il batterista-percussionista brasiliano Duduka Da Fonseca. Una intesa che dà qui buoni frutti mettendo in campo anche i flauti e le ance di Craig Handy e Jorge Contingentino e il pianoforte vellutato di Helio Alves.
Il repertorio è tutto originale e tutto firmato dal bassista e miscela abbastanza bene le diverse influenze (si va da Hindemith alla musica brasiliana...) per arrivare ad un jazz contemporaneo piacevole ma mai abrasivo.
