Jazz'N'More
By Juerg Sommer Tony Moreno, a former student of Coltrane-drummer Elvin Jones, belongs to today’s masters of his instrument. His new double CD proves that he counts to the absolute top of his field as a composer/bandleader as well. Without any mawkishness Moreno processes the traumatizing destruction of his music-related possessions by hurricane Sandy in 2012. His quintet, founded four years ago, (with Ron Horton, Marc Mommaas) presents dazzling post-and freebop. It reminds us of the Miles Davis Quintet of the 60s, carried forward into 2016. |
