about

All compositions by Pasquale Paterra.
Recorded in July and mixed in October 2022 at Deposito Zero Studios, Forlì, by Mattia “Matta” Dallara; analogic mastered in December 2022
at Digitalsound Studio, Vedelago (Treviso), by Walter Bertolo.

Unlike many young jazz musicians, Pasquale Paterra, despite having a long career in both jazz and classical music, released his debut album as a leader in his early 40s. «Images» is the fruit of many years of hard work which begun in a sextet first and a trio after, whose peculiar structure can’t help but recall similar bassless lineups led by Paul Motian and Ron Miles, both of them including Bill Frisell. The album consists of eleven tracks composed by the leader over ten years and includes the lyrical, dreamy title–track, the gently nostalgic Walking with My Father, and the more complex blues Contrasti, a clash between melodies played by trumpet and guitar. Paterra, who possesses a round sound and a faultless phrasing, shows a great sensitivity when playing the complex theme of the tender ballad Something About You and the mesmerizing, at times asymmetrical tempo of Sloping Houses, a title that evokes the sloping houses on via Casepente in Palena, on the Chieti Apennines, where the musician was born. The trumpeter from Abruzzo plays alongside guitarist Giovanni Bertelli and drummer Fausto Negrelli, friends that have shared many musical adventures for a dozen years at least, but the role played by trombonist Federico Pierantoni, an established musician in the Italian jazz scene, is invaluable. The interplay between the two brass instruments is tight and powerful in A Big Family and Stars – the latter is dedicated to Marco Tamburini – which are disguises of I Love You and Stella by Starlight respectively and one can hear echoes of Baker and Mullingan’s renowned pianoless quartet. Simplicity, the search for singable melodies while keeping the love for improvisation, as well as the attention to sound are the main features of «Images», a frank and excellent debut album.
