Luigi Di Nunzio: Inexistent

Read "Inexistent" reviewed by Luigi Sforza


Non si scorgono crepe né zone d'ombra nel disco da leader del sassofonista Luigi Di Nunzio. Inexistent documenta inequivocabilmente le qualità tecniche e creative del giovane musicista napoletano.

Antonio Faraò: Woman's Perfume

Read "Woman's Perfume" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Woman's Perfume esemplifica la tendenza di un certo jazz contemporaneo votato al più esangue mainstream, in cui tutto pare preordinato a tavolino. Un’opera bifronte nella carriera discografica di Antonio Faraò, che eccelle per la squisita musicalità senza però lasciare alcuna traccia sul piano della progettualità. Il suo è un disco raffinato ed estremamente curato nei dettagli, ...
