Laurenzi-Ernst-Green: Sightline

Read "Sightline" reviewed by Hrayr Attarian


Chicago based trio Laurenzi-Ernst-Green's debut Sightline is an atmospheric album filled with intriguing patterns and exuberant and elegant spontaneity. An intimate mysticism imbues this collaborative effort of seven original compositions with a modal bent. Bassist Katie Ernst's wordless vocals hauntingly echo saxophonist Dustin Laurenzi's big toned tenor on the mesmerizing “Skoops," while her resonant ...

Andrew Green: Narrow Margin

Read "Narrow Margin" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Confesso che sono rimasto un po' spiazzato di fronte ad un disco come Narrow Margin. Da una parte vi è un gruppo di musicisti che anima normalmente la scena nordamericana più creativa e trasversale; dall'altra una musica ben suonata, elegante, a tratti raffinata, ottimamente arrangiata e inserita a pieno diritto nella strada maestra della musica afroamericana. ...
