Alberto Pinton Quintet: Vita Pratica
by AAJ Italy Staff
Non so perché ma l’ascolto dell’iniziale “La vacanza italiana“ mi ha scaraventato dalle parti di Extrapolation di John McLaughlin, nonostante tempi storici e strumentazione assai diverse. Forse perché nel sax baritono di Alberto Pinton ho trovato più di un assonanza con quello di John Surman, forse perché il groove del brano, così accattivante ma altrettanto imprevedibile ...
Alberto Pinton Quintet: Vita Pratica
by Glenn Astarita
Italian multi-reed ace Alberto Pinton takes his art rather seriously. Time and time again he produces some of the more stimulating jazz to be heard. A resident of Sweden, the artist employs regional musicians to round out his long-running quintet. It's a complexly enacted and polytonal engagement, where the band merges the structural component with free-wheeling ...

Alberto Pinton Quintet: Motionemotion
by Glenn Astarita
You won't find a whole lot of schmaltz or sugar-coated themes in Italian multi-reedman Alberto Pinton's music.

Alberto Pinton: Common Intent
by Glenn Astarita
Dynamics and well-placed subtleties abound on this outing led by sharpshooter baritone saxophonist/clarinetist Alberto Pinton. This quartet charts a path brimming with sublime portraitures, bubbly unison choruses, and swarming yet flexible rhythms, although the band conjures up ominous notions on “Improvisation IV/IV." Pinton and trumpeter Kyle Gregory frequently engage in soaring choruses atop the thoroughly musical ...
