"Lovely" is the word that comes to mind when listening to this piano - led trio.
Piacentini
prefers it soft and slow, with a delicacy that barely calls attention to itself. Yet, this is not "lite" jazz in any sense: The pianist is firmly in control of complex harmonies that sing with a sweet sonority. While his five originals gently breathe the atmosphere, the pianist's takes on
Miles Davis
'
"All Blues"
and the classic
"Stella by Starlight"
show just how creative
can be.
"Stella"
opens with somewhat abstract bass (
Piero Leveratto
) that only hints at the melody. The drums (
Roberto Gasso
) join in, and then
chimes in with some fast boppish lines and block chords. Electricity abounds and
Gatto
, in particular, keeps things lively. The melody is only laid out near the end. In contradistinction,
is played as a quirky, playful waltz, allowing the musicians license to stretch. ~ Steve Loewy
