Aki Takase: Something Sweet, Something Tender

Read "Something Sweet, Something Tender" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Disco diseguale questo Something Sweet, Something Tender di Aki Takase. La pianista giapponese si confronta in solitudine con alcuni autori che ne hanno segnato la crescita artistica (Monk, Dolphy, C. Bley, O. Coleman, il marito von Schlippenbach) e mette in mostra le proprie doti di scrittura soprattutto nella suite intitolata “Something for A“. Ma non sempre ...

Aki Takase / Lauren Newton: Spring In Bangkok

Read "Spring In Bangkok" reviewed 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.

Aki Takase: Tarantella

Read "Tarantella" reviewed 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

Read "The Dessert" reviewed 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 ...
