Nicola Fazzini Minimum Sax: Random2
by Alberto Bazzurro
Poco più di mezz'ora di sax alto solo, suddivisa in quarantasei microtracce a loro volta ricondotte a dieci gruppi primari (vedi elenco dei brani in calce): questa la struttura del primo lavoro solitario di Nicola Fazzini, milanese di nascita ma trevigiano d'adozione (e in mezzo discreto giramondo), il quale parla di “composizioni originali nate da un ...
Kronomorfic: Entangled
by Maurizio Zerbo
Forti di una solidissima formazione musicale, i due leader David Borgo e Paul Pellegrin hanno messo la loro volatile espressività al servizio di un progetto estremamente stratificato sul piano ritmico e timbrico.

Phil Haynes No Fast Food: In Concert
by Neri Pollastri
Disco doppio registrato dal vivo in due diverse occasioni nel giugno e nell'agosto del 2012, questo lavoro ha nel titolo del progetto, No Fast Food, un emblematico ancorchè metaforico programma: la musica è infatti lontanissima dall'essere preconfezionata e pronta ad essere consumata rapidamente senza attenzione ed è invece costruita attraverso la creativa interazione di un trio ...
