Magic 101<\/em>, acompa\u00f1ado por tres m\u00fasicos pertenecientes a dos generaciones distintas: el veterano Kenny Barron (piano, 1943) y los \u00abj\u00f3venes\u00bb Kenny Davis (contrabajo, 1961) y Winard Harper (bater\u00eda, 1962).<\/p>\nLos cuatro m\u00fasicos afrontan un repertorio mayoritariamente compuesto por cl\u00e1sicos (\u00abSay It Isn’t So\u00bb, \u00abEasy Living\u00bb, \u00abCome Rain Or Come Shine\u00bb, \u00abBlue Monk\u00bb) afrontados a medio tiempo y a tempo de balada. Este hecho, que en otros m\u00fasicos y en otros casos es una dificultad insalvable para mantener el inter\u00e9s a lo largo de toda la grabaci\u00f3n, en esta ocasi\u00f3n es superada con nota por el magn\u00edfico sonido aterciopelado de Wess al saxo tenor (en esta ocasi\u00f3n no toca la flauta, que es su otro instrumento), y por la forma magistral en que sus compa\u00f1eros lo arropan.<\/p>\n
Uno de los puntos cumbre de la grabaci\u00f3n es el homenaje de Wess en solitario a Duke Ellington que cierra el disco por medio de su versi\u00f3n de \u00abAll Too Soon\u00bb. Toda una lecci\u00f3n de jazz a la cl\u00e1sica por un veterano ante el que no queda otra que quitarse el sombrero en se\u00f1al de respeto y admiraci\u00f3n. Lo suyo es jazz para todos los p\u00fablicos, sin caer en banalidades, ni hacer concesiones.<\/p>\n
