You gain a real sense of conversation here on this elegant pared back trumpet-piano duo album from Italian masters trumpeter Flavio Boltro and pianist Fabio Giachino recorded in Turin in 2020. Boltro can be Enrico Rava-like in the bravura way he weaves in and out of the melodic lines while Giachino finds an enormous spatial dimention on a track like 'Prelude to Salina' reminiscent of the late John Taylor. There's a lot of weight and satisfying depth to this pairing as the two balance the challenges of melodicism and more abstract approaches in a knowing blend. Highly recommended.
