Frank Kimbrough: Solstice

Read "Solstice" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


A stellar interlude of three-way instrumental interplay can be found on composer/conductor Maria Schneider's first masterpiece, Concert In The Garden (ArtistShare, 2004), on the set's title tune, beginning about five and a half minutes in. Ben Monder lays down a ghostly guitar solo that climbs to an eerie climax, as a handoff to pianist Frank Kimbrough, ...

Frank Kimbrough: Solstice

Read "Solstice" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Gravitas and weightlessness may seem like odd compeers, but both are ill at ease with one another and beautifully in league in the music of pianist Frank Kimbrough. On Solstice--the latest of many fine trio dates in Kimbrough's discography, and his first release on the Pirouet imprint--Kimbrough does what he does best, conjuring the elements through ...

Nels Cline: Lovers

Read "Lovers" reviewed by Mark Sullivan


No one can accuse guitarist Nels Cline of being predictable. He has recorded with his avant-garde trio the Nels Cline Singers most consistently (with bassist Devin Hoff and drummer Scott Amendola), but also led larger groups, such as the one on New Monastery (Cryptogramophone, 2006). More recently there was his duet with guitarist Julian Lage on ...

Nels Cline: Lovers

Read "Lovers" reviewed by Jerome Wilson


When I first heard excerpts from Nels Cline's Lovers project, I wasn't too impressed. I thought it sounded like some kind of archaic “mood music" album. Then as I heard more about the set, including the songs being performed and the personnel performing them, I became intrigued. Now I've heard the entire thing and understand what ...

Nels Cline: Lovers

Read "Lovers" reviewed by Luca Canini


Anche gli esploratori più coraggiosi e solitari hanno bisogno di una casa. Se non altro per il gusto di andarsene; e per il piacere, prima o poi, di tornarci. Un posto del cuore, al centro dell'anima. Uno spazio nel quale sentirsi completi, leggeri, liberi; teneramente imprigionati in quel groviglio di emozioni e suggestioni che sono il ...

Insalata d'ance dal duo al quartetto: Gebhard Ullmann e dintorni

Read "Insalata d'ance dal duo al quartetto: Gebhard Ullmann e dintorni" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


La partenza di questa nostra odierna circumnavigazione, che di primo acchito potrà anche apparire stravagante ma le cui motivazioni confidiamo appariranno poi piuttosto chiare, ha un nome e un cognome: Gebhard Ullmann, notevole sassofonista e clarinettista tedesco di cui ci occupiamo sempre volentieri. Nella fattispecie, lo troviamo coinvolto in tre recenti album (in un caso come ...

Mary Halvorson: Meltframe

Read "Meltframe" reviewed by Stefano Merighi


Il primo disco di Mary Halvorson in solo sancisce la piena maturità acquisita dalla chitarrista bostoniana. Un'artista che folgora immediatamente oppure insospettisce, che appare come un'apprendista sempre in fase di studio oppure come una razionale dispensatrice di finezze da tempo metabolizzate. Fin dalle prime sortite in trio, o in gruppi più ...

Poker di Jon Irabagon

Read "Poker di Jon Irabagon" reviewed by Stefano Merighi


Il jazz di oggi è sicuramente policentrico, continuando in questo la sua stratificata tradizione. Sempre più spazio trovano artisti americani di origini diverse. Tra essi, il sassofonista Jon Irabagon (sangue filippino) è emerso da un decennio con una forza dirompente, conseguenza di una preparazione enciclopedica, tradotta abilmente in un'ampia gamma di situazioni sonore.

Mary Halvorson: Meltframe

Read "Meltframe" reviewed by Karl Ackermann


In a quietly forceful way, guitarist Mary Halvorson has cemented her place among the company of modern-day counterparts such as Eivind Aarset, Nels Cline and Terje Rypdal. The Brooklyn based composer/musician has performed with the likes of Anthony Braxton (both sharing credentials at Wesleyan University), cornet player Taylor Ho Bynum and the avant-garde group Trevor Dunn's ...
