by AAJ Italy Staff

Aki Takase / Lauren Newton: Spring In Bangkok

by Nic Jones
Both Aki Takase and Lauren Newton have shown admiral commitment to music on the margins, and this is a highly idiosyncratic documentation of their work in progress. The term singing" has never be adequate for what Newton does with her voice, and the fact that so much of her communication is non-verbal gives this music a ...
Aki Takase: Tarantella

by AAJ Italy Staff
Ci sono due curiosi depistaggi sulla copertina dell’ultimo lavoro discografico della pianista giapponese Aki Takase. Il primo si riferisce al nome del gruppo, la cui sigla “piano quintet” farebbe presagire un ensemble costruito intorno al ruolo centrale del pianoforte; il secondo si riferisce al titolo, Tarantella, che parrebbe evocare una gioiosa danzabilità o atmosfere ricche di ...

Aki Takase and Rudi Mahall: The Dessert

by Elliott Simon
Previous collaborations between pianist Aki Takase and bass clarinetist Rudi Mahall have resulted in clever recapitulations of W. C. Handy and Eric Dolphy tunes. The Dessert allows both artists the freedom of a completely self-penned CD to present 17 pieces that emphasize their delectable dynamics. On the sweetest slices, piano and bass clarinet blend to create ...
