The one headed by trombonist Massimo Morganti is a very close-knit quartet, with a great melodic sense and the technical skills constantly bent in favor of a profound expressiveness.
This thanks to the writing of the leader – formerly director of the Colors Jazz Orchestra and sideman in various projects -, who signs five of the seven tracks in the lineup, where we find a melodic conception that enhances the desire to start complex and at the same time understandable speeches, to which the guitarist Angelo Lazzeri plays a decisive role. Together with Morganti they form a winning couple, able to capture the attention for the entire duration of Musiplano, a sincere album played with the right determination and never overdoing it. In this sense the contributions of the rhythm section (Gabriele Pesaresi: double bass and Stefano Paolini: drums) turn out to be fundamental, forming a solid framework, which allows the two soloists to carve out gritty passages, as in “Signor K,” or embroider melodic ellipses that enhance the tracklist on several occasions.
It could be defined as cool jazz, without forgetting both the bluesy atmospheres that pervade the music of Morganti and the slightly more marked passages that shift the stylistic balance towards a bop territory. It could be better defined as an excellent work, which can be heard several times and always with renewed interest.
