Throughout the album, Michele Mottian's inventive drumming adds a layer of unpredictability, keeping listeners on their toes and engaged. Tracks like "Passionate Journey" and "Twelve bars" showcase the group's impressive chemistry and improvisational abilities.

The standout moment comes with the haunting ballad "For The Time Being," where Lovano's emotional saxophone playing is truly mesmerizing. The track builds to a crescendo of passion and intensity, leaving a lasting impact on the listener.

Overall, Lovano / Michele Mottian's For The Time Being is a must-listen for jazz enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
