Pinton - Kullhammar - Zetterberg - Nordeson: Chant

Read "Chant" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


A Coimbra, patria del fado “accademico," il festival jazz offre sempre una programmazione molto affine all'estetica dell'ottima etichetta portoghese Clean Feed, e in piena sintonia con il suo patron Pedro Costa. Non è la prima volta che formazioni di area svedese pubblicano per Clean Feed registrazioni live fatte al festival: accadde anche per il tenor sassofonista ...

Alberto Pinton / Jonas Kulhammar / Torbjorn Zetterberg / Kjell Nordeson: Chant

Read "Chant" reviewed by Stuart Broomer


This beefy quartet was drawn from existing Stockholm bands by baritone saxophonist/clarinetist Alberto Pinton at the suggestion of Clean Feed producer Pedro Costa. As bassist Torbjörn Zetterberg describes it in his liner note, it's half of his octet, half of tenor and baritone saxophonist Jonas Kullhammar's quartet, half of Kullhammar and drummer Kjell Nordeson's quartet Nacka ...

Alberto Pinton Quintet: Vita Pratica

Read "Vita Pratica" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Non so perché ma l’ascolto dell’iniziale “La vacanza italiana“ mi ha scaraventato dalle parti di Extrapolation di John McLaughlin, nonostante tempi storici e strumentazione assai diverse.

Alberto Pinton Quintet: Vita Pratica

Read "Vita Pratica" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Italian multi-reed ace Alberto Pinton takes his art rather seriously. Time and time again he produces some of the more stimulating jazz to be heard.
