Bobby Bradford, Frode Gjerstad Quartet: The Delaware River
Nulla di mirabolante o clamoroso ma i due assicurano un moto perpetuo di sollecitazioni, di indizi, di suggerimenti, di sostegno a volte sanguigno altre più trattenuto, fondale perfetto per le scorribande dei due fiati. Cerebrale Gjerstad -uso massiccio di sovracuti, suono siderale, fraseggio tagliente come un rasoio -, umorale Bradford -cornetta che sa di blues, di strade impolverate, di lunghi pomeriggi oziosi e sonnolenti in riva al Mississippi. Ed entrambi in possesso della preziosa arte della pazienza, della nota giusta al momento giusto, dell'essenzialità come credo espressivo.
The Delaware River contiene musica per certi versi misteriosa, affascinante nei suoi contrasti (ir)risolti, appagante nella sua molteplicità di lettura. Raccomandato.
