The Words and the Days is an album by Italian jazz trumpeter and composer Enrico Rava recorded in December 2005 and released on ECM in 2007.[1]
Reception
The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars stating "Once more, Rava dazzles with his grasp of the languages of jazz: its textures, its rhythms, its dynamics and above all, of course, its secretive and inventive melodic improvisation. There is no let down here from Easy Living; The Words and the Days is a worthy companion that confidently stands not in the previous recording's shadow, but on a ledge of its own."[2]
