Marc Ribot & The Young Philadelphians al Teatro Manzoni di Milano
by Paolo Peviani
Aperitivo in Concerto Teatro Manzoni Milano 22.11.2015 Esploratore come pochi altri, Marc Ribot ha attraversato i territori musicali più disparati. Dal jazz di John Zorn alla canzone d'autore di Joe Henry, dalle atmosfere quintessenzialmente newyorchesi dei Lounge Lizards alla musica cubana di Arsenio Rodriguez, gli ambiti in cui il ...
Squakk: Willisau & Berlin
by John Sharpe
Four Germans combine for a set that recalls some of the classic Anthony Braxton quartet sides with George Lewis or Ray Anderson from the 1970s. Common ground abounds in their free-bop structures and the delightful interplay as between reeds and trombone as they slip in and out of both tunes and time. There are also other ...
Mark Wingfield: The Continuing Evolution of the Electric Guitar
by John Mark McGuire
I was first introduced to the music of Mark Wingfield through listening to his first duo album with the inventive genius of Massachusetts acoustic mastermind, Kevin Kastning. Although in my gut I suspected it, it was almost impossible, still, to believe when it was confirmed that both players had indeed improvised the entire album. While retaining ...
Ingrid Laubrock: Ubatuba
by Karl Ackermann
It's hard to believe that German born saxophonist and composer Ingrid Laubrock has been recording since the late 1990s, perhaps because there is a distinct newness to every project she releases. Although she trained with Jean Toussaint in London for a short time and later with Dave Liebman, Laubrock is very much a self-made artist with ...
Convergence Quartet: Owl Jacket
by John Sharpe
Owl Jacket forms the fourth release over a nine year period from the Convergence Quartet. At the outset, few would have predicted that it would become a going concern, uniting as it did two unknown young English improvisers in pianist Alexander Hawkins and bassist Dominic Lash and two of the brighter emerging talents on the New ...
Marilyn Crispell / Gerry Hemingway: Table Of Changes
by John Sharpe
Although Table of Changes is only the third release from the pairing of pianist Marilyn Crispell and percussionist Gerry Hemingway, it comes relatively hot on the heels of Affinities (Intakt, 2011) which broke a long silence since Duo (Knitting Factory, 1989). The paucity of these occurrences belies an extensive shared tenure, both as part of reedman ...

Mary Halvorson: Meltframe
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 ...
Hashtag Jazz
by Margret Grebowicz
In his 1994 study Thinking in Jazz: The Infinite Art of Improvisation, Paul Berliner describes American jazz as a community cutting across “boundaries defined by age, class, vocation, and ethnicity" and concludes that “it is their abiding love for the music that binds this diverse population together." (Berliner, 1994, p. 36) Twenty years later, jazz community ...
I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Daniel Levin
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Joe Morris -Solos -Bimhuis (Relative Pitch -2015). Musica incredibile. Ci sono così tante informazioni in ogni frase di Joe. La prima volta che ho ascoltato questo disco, sono ritornato sui primi tredici secondi di “Trunk" almeno una trentina di volte prima di passare al brano successivo. Incredibilmente denso e fluido allo stesso tempo.
