George Cables: Icons and Influences
by Maurizio Zerbo
Pochi CD come questo trasmettono all'ascoltatore emozioni e swing di incommensurabile intensità. È questa la chiave di lettura di un magnifica prova pianistica, sviluppatasi nel segno di una olimpica leggerezza di tocco e fluidità di fraseggio. Una quintessenza della raffinatezza armonica e della tecnica sopraffina, non gridata solo sussurrata. Una lezione di jazz da parte del ...

Trombettista, produttore, didatta (occupazione quest'ultima che l'ha visto attivo anche in Italia con diverse partecipazioni ai seminari estivi di Siena Jazz), Jeremy Pelt ha alle spalle decenni di militanza in formazioni di bop e post-bop: esordì con la Charles Mingus Big Band, e si esibisce tutt'ora con la Village Vanguard Orchestra e con la Duke Ellington ...

The organ trio was in its heyday then, and this one ...

Jeremy Pelt: Face Forward, Jeremy
by Glenn Astarita
Venerable trumpeter Jeremy Pelt takes another step out of the modern jazz schema, expanding upon Water and Earth (HighNote Records, 2013) with his young band by forging an acoustic- electric jazz wonderland, swarming with colorful fabrications and capacious sonic environs.
