Support it the lightness of being, one might say, listening to Il sole di un momento, the new work of the singer and composer Ada Montellanico, here surrounded by a group of first-rate stars of Italian and international jazz. Lightness of the texts, words that flirt with the feelings, words never invasive or absolute but discreet suggestions to free the thought to the wave of the emotions. How not to be lulled by phrases such as "... I'll dream you anyway, because the rain that wets us does not become snow .." or "... I take a moment lost in time, sounds that weave new words ..."? Lightness of music, softness of the sound mixes embellished by Paul McCandless's oboe and enriched with arcane meanings from the ancient basset horn played by Antonio Amanti, without forgetting the sophisticated Stefano Cantini saxophones and the acoustic brush strokes of Bebo Ferra's guitar. Words, song and music do not travel on parallel tracks, nor do they act like vain primadors in search of the tear-jerking agent or the ovation solo. Just as some organisms can not do without one another in order to survive, words and music live in a form of real osmosis in which each one drinks at the source of the other, drawing renewed energy and stimulating ideas. Pieranunzi is a master in the art of accompaniment and knows very well that the lyrics of Ada Montellanico can not simply be accompanied. The perfect diction, the rich timbre of the singer's chiaroscuro, the discreetly minimalist texts ask to be metabolized and brought to the surface through a constantly moving pianism, which abandons the call of a calligraphic melancholy to favor a volitive, intriguing, sometimes free approach and adventurous. Poetic. ~ AAJ Italy Staff https://www.allaboutjazz.com/il-sole-di-un-attimo-enrico-pieranunzi-egea-records-review-by-aaji-staff.php
