Giuseppe Doronzo: Futuro Ancestrale
by Mark Corroto
A mesmerizing approach to an improvising trio yields Futuro Ancestrale, which was recorded during a performance at Amsterdam's Bimhuis in June of 2022.

Within the diversity of Amsterdam's global, multi-cultural environment, Italian saxophonist & composer Giuseppe Doronzo called on the talents of UK guitarist Andy Moor and US drummer Frank Rosaly.

by AAJ Italy Staff
Sebbene siano - da oltre trent'anni - una formazione essenzialmente anarco/punk, gli olandesi The Ex sono un nome che gli appassionati delle avventure più estreme e non convenzionali del jazz conoscono bene, per i frequentissimi collegamenti con la scena impro dei Paesi Bassi [e Europea in genere], nonché per il ruolo fondamentale avuto nel veicolare la virulenza sonica della musica etiopica [pensiamo alla collaborazione con Getatchew Mekuria] nei circuiti avant del Vecchio Continente. Da qualche anni poi, girano in questa ...
