| A professional trumpet player since 1961 and an ENJA recording artist since 1980, Franco Ambrosetti is hailed among Europe’s most prolific jazz musicians, with a string of great, individual, and highly acclaimed albums. The Wind, Ambrosetti’s 13th ENJA album as a leader, is named after its opener, an outstanding Russ Freeman composition that Chet Baker made famous in 1952. Other bows to fellow musicians include a new version of Sonny Rollins’ 1954 classic “Doxy” and the leader’s own “Mike On Wings,” a re-working of his collaboration with the late Mike Brecker back in 1984. After three leader albums in a row featuring his son Gianluca on soprano sax and Dado Moroni on piano, The Wind presents the trumpeter in a new surrounding, accompanied by the current all-American trio of pianist Uri Caine, who also contributed two great tunes to the album (“Otello” and “Stiletto”). Concentrating on the trumpet and fuelled by the cooking energy of Uri Caine, Drew Gress, and Clarence Penn, Ambrosetti’s playing radiates a power and youthfulness that belie his age of 66. |
