Unpublished tracks by Art, received from his wife Laurie in a compelling and intense tribute. With Cables, Essiett, Burnett.

The leader and supporter of this meeting, with the approval and the blessing of Laurie Pepper – who also provided three unreleased pieces in addition to the one signed by none other than Phil Woods -, is the saxophonist Gaspare Pasini. A contemporary and free spirit who does not emulate but rather interprets every note with depth and definition, this alto player mainly plays himself at the peak of his maturity and artistic fullness. Never excesses or verbose improvisations but, on the contrary, a synthesis expressed with fluidity and without pauses or rhythm section is of the highest order given the long militancy of George Cables and Carl Burnett alongside the Californian giant, but also the granitic Essiet Essiet integrates at his best in a game of stimuli in which the music triumphs, with an almost hypnotic ability to dominate the listener from the first moment to the last.
