Claudio Fasoli Quintet
For Once
Splasc(H) Records (Italy) 1987
H126 (LP) coated sleeve. w/label catalog.
sleeve : NM-(very slightly collapse on one corner.)
media : NM-/NM-(some very slightly noise.)
Released in 1987 on the noted Italian contemporary jazz label Splasc(H) Records, this leader album comes from Venetian composer/saxophonist/flutist Claudio Fasoli. Featuring Hilaria Kramer (trumpet, flugelhorn), Marco Vaggi (bass), Piero Leveratto (bass), and Gianni Cazzola (drums), the quintet delivers a deeply atmospheric session. Highlights include A2, a mysterious, ethnic-flavored piece that opens with a brooding solo bass passage, and A3, where free-form drumming, an atmospheric bass solo, and warm flugelhorn interplay unfold in a slow, fluid weave. With its spacious, floating quality reminiscent of classic ECM releases, this is a superb example of deep contemporary jazz from Italy. Highly recommended.
A2: Flight
A3: Difference of Emphasis
B4: Questions
