ALBCD 027 – Peace Hotel – Paolo Recchia

ピース・ホテル/パオロ・レッキア

窓越しにティレニア海を見下ろす、地中海の小島に静かに佇む<PEACE HOTEL>。ゆるやかな時の流れとともに去来するさまざまな心的情景、波の合間を縫って遠くに響く海鳥と子供たちの声。イタリア屈指のアルト・サックス奏者=パオロ・レッキアが、スタン・ゲッツへの真摯なるオマージュを綴った『スリー・フォー・ゲッツ』(ALBCD-021)に続き、より発展的なトリオ・コンセプトで臨む2015年作品。メロディと密接に絡みながらアップデートされたリズム・アプローチが、ピアノレス/ドラムレス編成の可能性を押し広げ、より軽快で自由にハーモニーを響かせる。

«I remember fondly my musical interactions with saxophonist Paolo Recchia. I’ve played with many good jazz horn players in my career, but Paolo has the elements as a musician that make jazz fun; He swings, plays the blues convincingly, has a beautiful sound, listens and leaves space, too. This fantastic new CD is full of the moments that remind me of why I love jazz music in the first place. The other two members of this remarkable and empathetic trio are Enrico Bracco, whose guitar playing is clear, warm and confident with a strong sense of the history of his instrument, and Nicola Borrelli, who plays his instrument truly for what each moment in the music needs…» (to be continued inside the cover) – Joel Frahm, July 2015
