Blue Buddha: Blue Buddha
by Giuseppe Segala
Blue Buddha riunisce due calibri da novanta della scena contemporanea come Dave Douglas e Bill Laswell. Gli accosta un giovane batterista e compositore che si distingue tra le nuove personalità per caratura e ingegno, autore già in prima persona di lavori notevoli, tra cui That / Not e Alloy. Ma pure coprotagonista con Roscoe Mitchell dello ...
Rodrigo Amado: This Is Our Language
by Mark Corroto
It was only a matter of time before this session was to be. Portuguese tenor saxophonist Rodrigo Amado had, for years, been gaining the attention of American players, and recording his Motion Trio with guests such as Peter Evans and Jeb Bishop. When he conceived of this quartet, it was hand-in-the-glove fit. The title, ...
Yoshie Fruchter: Schizophonia: Cantorial Recordings Reimagined
by Dave Wayne
A stalwart of New York City's astoundingly creative Judaic music scene, multi-instrumentalist and composer Yoshie Fruchter specializes in one thing: moving on from what he's already accomplished. Though he has two genre-smashing albums of edgy, Judaic jazz- rock-prog fusion on John Zorn's Tzadik label under his belt (Blasphemy and Other Serious Crimes, Tzadik Records, 2011, and ...
Spirits Rejoice! An Interview with Jazz and Religion Author Dr. Jason Bivins
by K. Shackelford
When contemplating the connection between jazz and religion, many short pieces have been written about it, yet no American scholar has released an exhaustive and comprehensive book on such an important topic. Dr. Jason Bivins, a well-respected religious studies and philosophy professor, has brilliantly tackled the task. His new book, Spirits Rejoice! (Oxford University Press, 2015) ...
Peter Brotzmann, John Edwards, Steve Noble: Soulfood Available
by Stefano Merighi
Se è vero che l'improvvisazione radicale non è immune dai clichè che vorrebbe oltrepassare, difficile trovare in fallo Peter Brötzmann in questo contesto. La sua inesausta avventura sonora si rafforza sera dopo sera in concerti spesi senza risparmio, con un'incoscienza psicofisica che garantisce sincerità artistica e spesso vette espressive sublimi. Qui siamo a ...
All Included: Satan In Plain Clothes
by John Sharpe
Cooperative five piece All Included goes from strength to strength on Satan In Plain Clothes, building on the already considerable charms of their debut Reincarnation Of A Free Bird (Stone Floor, 2012). Connections abound in the unchanged line up which reflects the burgeoning, almost incestuous, Scandinavian scene. Check out the overlaps in personnel among groups such ...
Three Shots from Siwula: Blaise Siwula & NoFrillsMusic
by Jakob Baekgaard
The emergence of free jazz in the 1950s and 1960s pioneered a new way of thinking about music that not only affected the way music sounded, but also the way it was shared and distributed. In many ways, free jazz was a movement away from mainstream and mass-distribution and the rediscovery of music as art, but ...
Universal Indians with Joe McPhee: Skullduggery
by Enrico Bettinello
Un po' di collegamenti e incroci. Il trio Universal Indians trae il proprio nome dal pezzo di Albert Ayler che chiudeva il disco Love Cry. Ispirarsi a Ayler -o comunque a quel momento storico e espressivo in cui il sassofonista si trovò a agire, insieme a John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman e soci... ...
Jakob Bro: Hymnotic/Salmodisk
by Jakob Baekgaard
The exploration of different musical formats has been one of the defining characteristics of Danish guitarist Jakob Bro for a long time. It makes perfect sense when you think about Bro's approach to music. He is an artist that likes to work with different voices to see what they can bring to the music.

Grande ammiratore di Mark Helias e di Bill Goodwin e collaboratore in alcuni dei loro progetti, il trombettista Kirk Knuffke, è riuscito nell'intento di farli suonare per la prima volta insieme in Arms & Hands, album al quale collabora un'altro eroe del leader come il sassofonista Daniel Carter.
