Tom Rainey – Obbligato on Intakt Records: The ensemble dedicates itself to the re-distribution of melody and improvisation on the standard song form and contribute their creativity to a group improvisation that expresses the jazz standard in a fresh way.
„Greater than the sum of its parts, the group‘s congenial rapport is emblematic of attentive listening and democratic interplay. Alessi‘s oblique lyricism, Laubrock‘s quixotic phrasing, Davis‘ pointed accents and Gress‘ pliant ruminations all work in collusion with the leader‘s wide-ranging dynamics. Though unconstrained by formal concerns, the musicians always maintain some key aspects of the underlying structure of each piece, be it melody, harmony or rhythm. Such awareness of the tradition enriches the depth of their interpretations, making Obbligato one of the most persuasive modern recordings of established standards in some time.“
