Amazon.com At 66, Italian trumpeter Enrico Rava is experiencing an artist upsurge. Tati, his followup to the acclaimed Easy Living, which brought him back to the ECM label after 17 years, is as broad-reaching and penetrating as anything he has done in years. Ranging from a piece inspired by free jazz giant Ornette Coleman to an adaptation of Puccini's "E lucevan le stelle" from Tosca, it melts the boundary between jazz and other genres with supreme ease. Heading a "inside-outside" trio including his young piano partner of recent years, Stefano Bollani, and the great drummer Paul Motian, Rava succeeds where other ECM artists have not--using the label's ethereally controlled sound to heighten his lyricism, not hermetically seal it. The horn man wrote most of the material, including "Jessica Too," a crisp exercise in counterpoint, and the title ballad, named after French film master Jacques Tati. The trio also feasts on established pieces by Motian including "Birdsong," which channels Erik Satie, and Bollani's darting, elliptical "Casa di bambola" ("Doll's House"). --Lloyd Sachs Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsHonestly flying on the lightness of a few notes Mencarelli Fabrizio | Pisa, Italy | 02/18/2006 (4 out of 5 stars) "The trumpet of Enrico Rava can be recognized from his own personal phrasing althought he comes from a minimalist tradition of trumpet players and great musicians such as Miles Davis and Chet Baker. His last work is a confirmation of a maturity and elegance which are giving us a few golden notes to live better. The interplay with the young italian world famous piano player, Stefano Bollani, is wonderfull and by themselves are sufficient in exploring the essence of the music. Paul Motian does not look like being at his best, he is not interplaying with the expected energy and decision to underline the wonderful moments Rava and Bollani are gifting us. The duo, Rava - Bollani, would have deserved 5 stars." Transcending... V. Atanassova | San Francisco, CA | 05/26/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Indeed, I saw Rava & Bollani in concert too and I'd never heard them before that. I found Rava's music completely transcending. It takes you to another reality. Not only that, but every sound was delivered with an absolute perfection, and an awareness for the space around and living things in it. I lost my first CD but I'm getting it again, along with "Easy Living"." Great album dig-it-the-most | New York | 04/14/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I saw Enrico a few weeks ago with Bollani (but without Motian) and picked up this CD after the gig.
The music was pretty much the same as this recording. Many of the tunes are the same, as is the very spacious quality. I have seen Chet a few times, Miles a half dozen, but not when Miles was playing this way with Herbie (to some extent.) With Chet and Miles gone, this is your best chance to hear this kind of trumpet playing live, so go check them out at once! You won't find this kind of maturity in music often. " |
