El descubrimiento de la m\u00fasica de John Coltrane a trav\u00e9s de los discos tuvo efectos decisivos en la formaci\u00f3n de un saxofonista argentino, Leandro \u00abGato\u00bb Barbieri. Poco antes de abandonar Argentina par ainstalarse en Europa – donde tocar\u00eda y grabar\u00eda con Don Cherry, convirti\u00e9ndose en uno de los abanderados del free jazz-, quiso enviar a Coltrane un regalo por medio de un amigo, para darle las gracias por todo lo que su m\u00fasica le hab\u00eda aportado. Se trataba de un soberbio estuche para saxo tenor, en cuero verde, totalmente hecho a mano, revestido de seda en su interior, con la palabra TRANE grabada en letras de oro sobre la cubierta, ofrecido por Gato y su esposa Michelle.<\/p>\n

El estuche fue entregado a Coltrane, pero sin conocer en absoluto la identidad del expedidor, pues Barbieri se hab\u00eda contentado con indicar: \u00abDe parte de un amigo de Buenos Aires\u00bb.<\/p>\n

Al a\u00f1o siguiente los Barbieri se instalaron en Roma. Cuando se enteraron de que Coltrane iba a tocar en Mil\u00e1n, fueron all\u00ed a escucharlo. Al acabar el concierto se acercaron al camerino para conocerle. All\u00ed, en un rinc\u00f3n, vieron el estuche que le hab\u00edan enviado.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a1Ah! as\u00ed que sois argentinos\u00bb, exclam\u00f3 Coltrane cuando fueron presentados. Y , se\u00f1alando con el dedo el famoso estuche, dijo: \u00abPrecisamente es un argentino quien me ha hecho el regalo. Lo utilizo siempre\u00bb.<\/p>\n

Cuando Barbieri revel\u00f3 que \u00e9l era el argentino en cuesti\u00f3n, Trane le dio las gracias efusivamente. Despu\u00e9s, con tanta seriedad como humor, a\u00f1adi\u00f3: \u00ab\u00bfCrees que podr\u00edas enviarme otro para el soprano?\u00bb.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
