They reflect the emotions and search for the new forms of expression. The team he collected  is closest to the modern style of jazz music.  This does not mean some form of a separation from the mainstream jazz. Instead, it allows him to diversify and make the most of a  great technique and a great sensitivity of the musicians he had invited to the project. The album “Facing the Challenge” was released in January 2011.
