Trumpet legend presents new project with distinctive quintet.------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fearless Five is the latest project from trumpet legend Enrico Rava, an outstanding quintet that combines Rava’s vast experience with the young, creative energy of a new generation of top musicians. Besides Rava, Fearless Five consists of Matteo Paggi on trombone, Francesco Ponticelli on double bass, drummer/vocalist Evita Polidoro, and guitarist Francesco Diodati. Each of them is a distinctive player who is given ample space by Rava to express their creative voice. The result is a quintet that excels in balancing freedom and interplay, and continues to captivate.
Master trumpeter Enrico Rava has been striving since the 1960s to find equilibrium between melody and abstraction, between tradition and avant-garde, and between European and American influences. The brass player from Turin performed on historic albums such as Steve Lacy’s The Forest and the Zoo, Carla Bley’s Escalator Over the Hill, and Manfred Schoof’s European Echoes, and continues to reinvent himself in formations with the new generation of top musicians.
