This supergroup delivers an unforgettable performance where blues, be bop, Latin themes come together in an exciting natural blend of enjoyable contrasts and balances that made the delight of the audience throughout the show. The spirit is high, all the musicians shine and swing in strong solos or playing together with plenty of virtuosity.
Album spotlights are many and as we can hear being happily appreciated with standing ovations.The breathtaking fluid piano solo on "Standard Life", the trumpet bursts on the opener "African Mood", the sparkling "What Blues" , the elegant melodic "Song for an African Child" with piano and brass section in a fascinating dialogue, the Latin flavored "Chachanada" a showcase of exhilarating solos, "II Bello Del Jazz" with its lively elegant swing and the danceable "Standard Life". Roberto Magris puts his creative stamp on Strayhorn's "A Flower is a Lovesome Thing" played in a rather unconventional way, while the mellow tone of the Rahsaan Roland Kirk "April Morning" finds a perfect spot on the album which ends with the finesse of the " Blues For My Sleeping Baby"
