Regina Carter: Southern Confort
La musica scorre piacevolmente con equilibrio, ma senza palpiti e grandi colpi d'ala. L'appassionato di musiche afroamericane vi scorgerà la latitanza della sensualità insita in queste musiche, unitamente ad una ricerca timbrica eterodossa vissuta come metodo e consapevolezza teoretica.
Al posto di una aperta sensualità fatta di stridori, suoni sporchi e glissando esasperati, c'è spazio per una raffinata costruzione sonora dove l'aura riflessiva prevale sulla materia sanguigna del blues feeling. Sulla carta è un disco curioso, che avrebbe potuto dar luogo ad una proposta postmoderna davvero originale. Ma il fascino creativo dell'idea non ha un suo efficace riscontro sia sul piano della costruzione sonora che della pratica strumentale.
