Massimo Barbiero, Markus Stockhausen: Stoicheia
by Neri Pollastri
Registrato nel settembre 2024 nel Giardino di Villa Cesana a Ivrea, in un concerto che vedeva anche la presenza della danzatrice Roberta Tirassa, Stoicheia vede all'opera Markus Stockhausen e Massimo Barbiero, impegnati in una lunga suite esapartita, sostanzialmente improvvisata e ispirata agli elementi dell'universo --il titolo riprende infatti il termine con cui i greci indicavano gli elementi, tradizionalmente Acqua, Terra, Fuoco e Aria, qui sostituita da Vento, e ai quali viene aggiunto l'Etere. Dopo un'introduzione sospesa, che verrà ...

What followed the primordial om, the sound that many religions, including Hinduism and Buddhism, associate with the creation of the universe? Om was not merely a sound, but also a profound vibration. Stoicheia, a term Aristotle used to describe the elements of earth, wind, fire and water, serves as the inspiration and name for this live performance by Massimo Barbiero and Markus Stockhausen. Together, they expand on Aristotle's classical elements, envisioning a fifth: ether. Barbiero and Stockhausen are ...

by Alberto Bazzurro
Un'eleganza un po' esangue e piuttosto ritorta su se stessa caratterizza questo album del duo formato da musicisti separati esattamente da vent'anni l'uno dall'altro (1957 per Stockhausen, 1977 per Weber). Il rilievo non deve suonare come una censura nei confronti del disco, capace anzi di ammaliare l'orecchio e gratificare lo spirito. Il problema è che fa non poca fatica ad andare al di là del pur preziosissimo esercizio di stile, anche ispirato, ma troppo monolitico sul piano sia climatico che ...

by John Kelman
Sixteen years have passed since Markus Stockhausen was last heard on an ECM recording, but the German trumpeter (and son of renowned composer, Karlheinz Stockhausen) has continued to lead a busy life. The core trio behind 2000's exceptional Karta--notable, in addition to guitarist Terje Rypdal's participation as invited guest, for being largely based on one 90-minute collective improvisation, from which seven of its eleven tracks were excised into fully-formed pieces (despite being pulled from the ether)--continued to work together. Joyosa ...

by Mark Sullivan
Alba--the first Markus Stockhausen recording for ECM since Karta (ECM, 2000)--is the premiere recording of trumpeter Stockhausen's duo with pianist Florian Weber, a relationship that spun off from Markus' six-piece world music ensemble Eternal Voyage. Initially Stockhausen wrote all of the material, but as the relationship grew Weber contributed tunes: there are also several impromptu performances in this set. After some early experiments with electronics the pair decided that they sounded stronger playing acoustically, making this an all-acoustic album.

by John Kelman
It's not uncommon to find bassists and drummers who work together so well that they become almost inseparable; often hired together because of their distinctive simpatico. It's rarer to find full groups with their own signature, expanding their vernacular by recruiting others for alternate ideas. Trumpeter Markus Stockhausen, bassist Arild Andersen and percussionist Patrice Heral have been working together since 1998 but, despite a singular aesthetic, it's their guest collaborators who have helped build a small but diverse body of ...

by John Kelman
Hungarian born/German based guitarist Ferenc Snétberger and German trumpeter Markus Stockhausen have been making music together for many years, most recently on Joyosa (Enja, 2004), where they were joined by Norwegian bassist Arild Andersen and French percussionist Patrice Héral. Joyosa, a cooperative focusing on the writing of everyone involved, contrasts sharply with Karta (ECM, 2000) where the trio of Stockhausen, Andersen and Héral recruited electric guitarist Terje Rypdal instead of Snétberger and, with live electronics also a part of the ...
