Justin Mullens: The Cornucopiad
Gli interventi solistici non sono da meno, generalmente ben piantati nel tessuto complessivo voluto da Mullens, in un'economia corale che finisce inevitabilmente (e felicemente, diremmo) per prevalere. Brani quali "Amalthea," ben articolato e miscelato, "You Stepped Out of a Dream," lineare quanto solido, "Sylvia D.," quello in cui la scrittura appare più incisiva, e "Naima," per motivi intrinseci ma anche per il felice sviluppo post-tematico, con al centro il sax alto di Chris Cheek, appaiono in tal senso i più riusciti.
