by Vincenzo Roggero
April 2, 2024

Quinsin Nachoff è personaggio atipico nell'attuale panorama musicale.

A remarkable feature of vibraphonist Yuhan Su's captivating fourth release as a leader, LIberated Gesture, is its cohesiveness and narrative quality. Even though only three tracks are part of a suite, common motifs and logical transitions interconnect all ten. This and the sublime balance between the emotional and the cerebral endows the work with its enchanting ...
