Pianist Paolo Paliaga fronts Horizon Quartet; they also feature acoustic guitarist Massimo Vescovi, alternating bassists Carlos Duschini and Stefano Dall'Ora, and drummer Nicola Stranieri. What is truly amazing and a little off-putting about this band is that they sound like one of Pat Metheny's early ensembles recording for ECM. And while the band can move toward the jazz end of things a little more often, they certainly fall into this trap more often than not. In fact, Paliaga's composition style comes directly from the collaborations by Metheny and his keyboard player, Lyle Mays. From the opener, "Appunti Di Viaggio," with its strident guitar lines ringing out over the mix and its deeply arpeggioed piano solo played at an easy and open tempo, the deep lyricism here is offset by the insistence on putting the "reaching for euphoria harmonies" that are Metheny's trademark. Go further into the set and the spirit of Metheny meeting Jan Garbarek and Eberhard Weber for an unplugged set at the local coffeehouse is everywhere, such as on "Piagro Azul" and "Against the Wind." There are so many fine Italian jazz records to discover and cherish, it's too bad this isn't one of them.
