Noah Kaplan

Read "Noah Kaplan" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


1. Joseph Haydn, Symphony 44, 25, 49 Iona Brown & Academy of St. Martin in the Fields (haenssler CLASSIC, 2000). Ci ho messo del tempo a rendermi conto di che tipo tosto fosse Haydn. Un sacco di Bach e presagi di Beethoven in questo disco. 2. Charles Mingus, Pithecanthropus Erectus (Atlantic, 1956). ...

Charles Gayle/Giovani Barcella/Manolo Cabras: Live In Belgium

Read "Live In Belgium" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Picking up any recording by the saxophonist (sometimes pianist) Charles Gayle always reminds me of the quote by actress Bette Davis' from the the film All About Eve (1950). After downing her martini in one gulp, Davis walks away, turns, and announces “fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy ride." Not bumpy as in ...

Cortex: Avant-Garde Party Music

Read "Avant-Garde Party Music" reviewed by John Sharpe


Why change a winning formula? If Norwegian crew Cortex has considered that question, then the response was likely an unconcerned shrug. Studio session Avant-Garde Party Music continues firmly in the winning vein established by Clean Feed predecessors Live! (2014) and Live In New York (2016), mashing 1960s New Thing tropes with contemporary inside/outside soloing. Trumpeter Thomas ...

Ivo Perelman Makes It Rain

Read "Ivo Perelman Makes It Rain" reviewed by Mark Corroto


If music was sports, then Ivo Perelman would be baseball and most other musicians football. Where football's regular season is 16 games, baseball plays 162. Likewise, most musicians release one album every year or two, but Perelman has averaged seven titles per year for the last seven years. His 2017 Leo Records output is thirteen (fourteen, ...

Read "Jamie Saft: Jazz in the Key of Iggy" reviewed by Luca Canini


In 1988 Bill Laswell produced Iggy Pop's album Instinct. Back then, little he could have known that, almost thirty years later, he would have been instrumental in facilitating the iconic singer's first foray in the Jazz world.
