Molinetti's Quintet's album "Charleston" is a delightful jazz experience that transports the listener to a bygone era. The quintet's skillful musicianship and tight arrangements make for a cohesive and enjoyable listening experience.
The album opens with the title track "Charleston," a lively and upbeat tune that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band's energy is infectious, and the listener can't help but tap their feet along to the rhythm.
The album also features some slower, more introspective tracks such as "Autumn Leaves" and "Round Midnight." The band's sensitivity and emotion shine through in these pieces, showcasing their versatility as musicians.
One standout track is "Take the A Train," a classic Duke Ellington tune that the quintet puts their own spin on. The arrangement is fresh and exciting, and the band's solos are impressive and engaging.
