Steve Olson: The Ruthless Shapes of Paradise
by Alberto Bazzurro
Dopo un album di duetti con partner diversi (Conversations, 2014), Steve Olson approda a questa che è la sua opera seconda optando invece per un organico fisso per tutto il disco, un trio entro le cui maglie la sua musica pudica, rattenuta, si muove seguendo la prassi della composizione istantanea, alias improvvisazione totale. ...

Drummer/percussionist Steve Olson, whose previous album, Conversations explored free improvisation between himself and various other instrumentalists, ...
Steve Olson: Conversations
by Alberto Bazzurro
