Anthony Braxton - Joelle Léandre: Duo (Heidelberg Loppem) 2007
by AAJ Italy Staff
Pierre Boulez ha scritto che l'opera non esiste se non nell'imprevedibile che diviene necessità". Il che pare ben adattarsi all'incontro (che ha avuto un solo precedente discografico, Ensemble (Victoriaville) 1988, in occasione del sesto Festival International de Musique Actuelle a Victoriaville, Canada) fra Joelle Léandre ed Anthony Braxton. Tre momenti improvvisativi, dei quali due estremamente estesi, ...
Royal Hartigan: Blood Drum Spirit
by Karl Ackermann
Good things sometimes fly under the radar; sometimes they are great things. This has never been more the case than with Royal Hartigans's Blood Drum Spirit, a jazz masterpiece that has languished in obscurity since its 1993 recording to its eventual 2004 release. It remains largely unrecognized six years later. Jazz, especially in the US, can ...
David S. Ware: Saturnian (Solo Saxophones Volume One)
by Nic Jones
This entirely solo music was captured for posterity at an AUM Fidelity label showcase in October, 2009; Ware's first live performance after a kidney transplant. Marking a dynamic return, it maps out yet another strand of Ware's artistry just as Threads (Thirsty Ear, 2003) did. Ware may be best known for his quartet work, it's clear ...

Forbes Graham: Magenta Haze
by Gordon Marshall
Forbes Graham isn't hell-bent on taking the jazz world over by fiat. Then again, a sterling tone like Louis Armstrong's, a sense of stride and a sidewinder sleekness position him to do so. He brings spot-on timing, inherited from his key precursor, Don Cherry, into the icy age of post jazz--and swings, too, situated ...
Ran Blake & Anthony Braxton: A Memory Of Vienna
by Troy Collins
On November 19, 1988, a few days before the Cool Noir music festival in Vienna, composer Franz Koglmann finished recording Orte Der Geometrie (Hatart) with his Pipetet a couple hours earlier than expected. A number of high profile artists and musicians were in attendance for the festival, so efforts were made to utilize the remaining pre-paid ...
Vic Rawlings: Hardball
by Gordon Marshall
On a June night in 2009, Vic Rawlings was spinning 1950s LPs at a local record store in Central Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts. At his side, the sound fountain"--a true period piece of a hi-fi tower (mono, of course). Buddy Holly started the party, segueing into Doris Day and The Ink Spots. Sometimes the records skipped ...
