Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Black Piccoli Numeri, 2007 CamJazz - Reviews:"Superb." (by Dave Wayne, Jazzreview)"Piccoli Numeri’s defining characteristics is Beltrami’s sense of melody; so unique as to be both unpredictable and eminently singable. For all intents and purposes, Piccoli Numeri is Beltrami’s debut on a larger scale and, in its compelling mix of elegant freedom, rich composition and group interaction, is one that augurs very well for a guitarist and trio well worth watching." (John Kelman, Allaboutjazz)"Il livello esecutivo è impressionante. I tre sembrano disporre di un respiro unico, di una competenza rara nel gestire il flusso sonoro e nel permettere al sound di espandersi e poi di richiudersi, proprio come farebbe un polmone."(Gianpaolo Chiriacò, Jazzit)"Beltrami possesses an innate lyricism, warm tone and sophisticated sense of harmony, and a penchant for quiet introspection." (John Kelman, Allaboutjazz)"Alle drei musizieren schon einige Jahre miteinander und jeder einzelne von ihnen findet genau jenen Ton, der den Austausch mit seinem Nebenmann ermöglicht, ihn mit sparsamsten Mitteln forciert und ihn in immer neue musikalische Bereiche trägt – ohne jemals in einen abgestandenen, gelangweilten Plauderton zu verfallen." (Joerg Konrad, JazzPodium)
