Sestetto Basso-Valdambrini • The Best Modern Jazz in Italy 1962

 



Back in the early '60s, the Basso Valdambrini Sextet represented without doubt the best Italian jazz example. Under the direction of tenor saxophonist Gianni Basso and trumpeter Oscar Valdambrini, there was a super-dynamic combo featuring a bunch of young, expert musicians, such as Dino Piana (trombone), Renato Sellani (piano), Giorgio Azzolini (bass) and Lionello Bionda (drums). As winners of the 1962 "Best Modern Jazz in Italy" contest, they released this album that can be easily considered as a landmark record in European jazz. A fresh and ultra-swinging program based on fine renditions of classic tunes by Jackie McLean, Benny Golson, Dave Brubeck, Junior Mance, and a couple of originals including a heartfelt tribute to master Coltrane.

A principios de los años 60, el Sexteto Basso Valdambrini representaba sin duda el mejor ejemplo de jazz italiano. Bajo la dirección del saxofonista tenor Gianni Basso y del trompetista Oscar Valdambrini, había un combo súper dinámico con un grupo de jóvenes y expertos músicos, como Dino Piana (trombón), Renato Sellani (piano), Giorgio Azzolini (bajo) y Lionello Bionda (batería). Como ganadores del concurso "Mejor Jazz Moderno de Italia" de 1962, publicaron este álbum que puede considerarse fácilmente como un disco de referencia en el jazz europeo. Un programa fresco y muy movido, basado en buenas interpretaciones de temas clásicos de Jackie McLean, Benny Golson, Dave Brubeck, Junior Mance, y un par de originales que incluyen un sentido homenaje al maestro Coltrane.
