Enrico Rava, the doyen of Italian jazz, joined forces with masterful US tenorist Joe Lovano for a brief tour in November 2018. On this album, recorded live in Rome, the two masters lead a spirited quintet that includes lyrical pianist Giovanni Guidi, dynamic drummer Gerald Cleaver and virtuosic bassist Dezron Douglas. Well-loved tunes by the two bandleaders form the core of the program which concludes with an extended and powerful medley that roams across the history of modern jazz.
