by Eyal Hareuveni
Israeli, Canada-based vocalist Ayelet Rose Gottlieb attempts in her fourth solo album to portray a possible peaceful vision of the Middle-East through a wise arrangement of Israeli and Palestinian poetry. These poems, all sung in Hebrew (and all translated to English) suggest that behind the conflict, contrasting historical, political and even cultural narratives live people who ...
Memories in Motian
by Zeno De Rossi
Soon after hearing about Paul Motian's passing (November 22, 2011) I felt the urge to delve (again) into his music. Later on, inspired by a moving writing by Ellery Eskelin (published on his website and reproduced below, by his kind permission), I thought it would have been interesting to collect brief memories from ...

Anat Fort Trio - "And If"
OVERVIEW: When it comes to music, I'm all about the mood. Thankfully, the career I have allows me to listen to music almost all day long—and not softly from computer speakers or a radio; I use a set of Shure SRH840 professional studio monitoring headphones which provide great detail, instrument separation, and a level of isolation ...
Samuel Blaser: Consort in Motion
by Dan McClenaghan
There is something positively celestial about Consort in Motion. It's like listening to a soundtrack of the workings of a Jovian planetary system: a substantial mass in the middle (Samuel Blaser's trombone), orbiting moons and scatterings of interplanetary debris (bass and drums); and flashes and sparkles twinkling off of space dust (piano), with things making sense ...

by John Kelman
Colin Vallon Trio Rruga ECM Records 2011 As much as many artists have a clear idea of where they are and where they're going, there's no denying the value of a strong producer. Colin Vallon's first two trio discs--2004's Les Ombres, on the small Swiss NotsiNOISY label, and 2007's Ailleurs, ...

Anat Fort Trio: And If
by AAJ Italy Staff
L'iniziale “Paul Motian" è da brividi. Il brano dedicato al grande batterista che avevo suonato su A Long Story, debutto ECM di Anat Fort, è poesia allo stato puro. In una manciata di minuti si condensano al meglio le due direttrici cardine nella visione musicale della pianista e compositrice israeliana, ossia la rigorosità e la perfezione ...
