 | BITTOLO BON, PIERO & HIS ORIGINAL PIGNETO STOMPERS Mucho Acustica Label : Long Song Records Year : 2011 Format : CD Style : Jazz Availability : In stock Price : 14.50 € - BUY | |
| Description : | Piero Bittolo Bon is one of Italian Jazz's youngest and most acclaimed rising stars. A mostly self-taught player, he mainly plays alto saxophone but is also at ease on baritone and contralto, bass clarinet and flute. Passionate and vibrant, his music reverberates with echoes of the best of free jazz, 'fire music', torrid improvisations, sharp attacks and continuous inventions bar after bar. The rest of the band is completed by guitar player Simone Massaron, and drummers Federico Scettri and Max Sorrentini, young but experienced musicians on the forefront of the best Italian jazz and avant-guard scenes.
'Mucho Acustica' is definitely filled with many moods and strong musical statements. The good feeling among the musicians was immediate and the energy was running from the very first takes. There's a dominating vibe, which is a mix two sources. First there's Piero his sounds are proud and fierce, dark and austere, always serching even physically for his limits and the way to go beyond them. Then there are the thunderous hypnotic electric grooves of Tacuma. These sounds set the base for some layers of 'Electric Miles' oriented jams, but with an overall self-abandon more typical of free jazz, with a double drum and guitar interplay that often even moves rhythmically into Afro territories, heavy and light at the same time. What dominates is 'Black Music' and some of its more visceral elements and expressions, with furious electric rides and blues and funk meetings. But there are also abstract moments of delicate instrumental dialogues, that suddenly move into rhythmic explorations and long trancey pedals, dry and raucous. You can also enjoy Max and Federico's respective finesse in mixing their jazz and rock improvisational roots and skills, and their dexterity in avoiding clichés and keeping the beat precise and fresh, and Simone’s endless tone and harmonic ability in delivering mind blowing solos and various unexpected turning points over many tracks. | |
