Hadn’t seen this when I posted! Black and Blue was a great label.

Rare example of a project commissioned by a fellow board member.

Paolo Fresu - Incantamento (Plays the music of Tino Tracanna) (Blue Note Italy). Part of a 5 CD series of sessions Fresu did with his quintet with each disc featuring original compositions from each member of the band. This is Tino Tracanna's disc. This is great jazz. All 5 of these CDs are well worth hearing.

How old is this set?

Don't know Fresu outside of the record he did with Carla Bley, but that one was great!

I don't know Fresu's work as a leader either -- but I love his playing with Aldo Romano's quartet. Specifically: 
- Ritual (Owl, 1988)
- To Be Ornette to Be (Owl, 1989)
- Dreams & Waters (Owl, 1991)

The album with Bley/The Lost Chords is truly magnificent. He displays a lyricism that inhabits Bley's writing in a most poignant manner.

One to add to the list.

The set was released in 2016. I think all the material was recorded between 2005 and 2007.

Also available as individual CDs by Blue Note Italy around the earlier dates (at least that’s how I got mine).
