Sokratis Sinopoulos: Eight Winds
by Neri Pollastri
Ecco un lavoro davvero molto particolare, che prende ispirazione dalla musica tradizionale per realizzare impasti di impianto jazzistico, traendoli per giunta da una regione--la Grecia--la cui tradizione, splendida, è stata piuttosto sottovalutata in questo contesto. Ne è autore Sokratis Sinopoulos, poco più che quarantenne specialista della lyra, strumento tradizionale dell'area egea, che ha coltivato ...

by AAJ Italy Staff
Sono bastati pochi ascolti per individuare il lato della sfaccettata forma jazzistica di Charles Lloyd che combacia con quello di Maria Farantouri, cantante solenne e con alcuni tratti lirici.

Eleni Karaindrou: Elegy of the Uprooting
by AAJ Italy Staff
