«Orchestrando Piano», the first album by leader of the young pianist Gerardo Pepe, born in Puglia but now living in Bologna, shows off his magnificent qualities as arranger and conductor, uncommon for a musician of his age. He does not conduct a real big band here, but a large ensemble of twelve elements, which, however, contains all the instruments that make up a traditional jazz big band. There are six original arrangements of modern standards, all composed by famous pianist, from Horace Silver to Thelonious Monk, from McCoy Tyner to Herbie Hancock, faced with freshness and without referential fears, but also one original composition of the leader, which pays tribute in the centenary of the birth to the unforgettable master Charles Mingus. Even the orchestra’s members are all very young, musicians in part already known of the new Italian jazz scene, from Antonello Del Sordo to Roberto Solimando, from Federico Califano to Daniele D'Alessandro. Ultimately a successful record, well–built and enjoyable, which shows how much there is still need for orchestral jazz.
