Read "Mai Jazz 2014" reviewed by John Kelman

Arild Andersen, Paolo Vinaccia, Tommy Smith: Mira

Read "Mira" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


Registrato al leggendario Rainbow Studio di Oslo nel dicembre 2012 e uscito poco più di un anno dopo (gennaio 2014), questo album ci ripropone una delle formazioni più tipiche, esplicative, paradigmatiche, di un dato suono nordico in jazz, nello specifico veicolato attraverso un organico che nella musica afroamericana, pur con tutte le di lei progressive appendici, ...

Ola Kvernberg Trio: Northern Tapes

Read "Ola Kvernberg Trio: Northern Tapes" reviewed by John Kelman


It's been three years since Ola Kvernberg released the ambitious Liarbird (Jazzland, 2011), a studio document of his 2010 Molde International Jazz Festival commission where guest Joshua Redman was recruited for the live performance, but where, far more than a ringer for Kvernberg, Redman was clearly awestruck by this virtuosic young violinist/composer. It's not that Kvernberg ...

His more orthodox projects encompass a jazz standards quartet, and the contemporary Trio Edition with bassist Arild Andersen and guitarist Christy Doran. Halbheer's more exotic collaborations embrace the folk musics of China, Central Asia, the Alps and the Balkans in genre-defying fusions. ...

Read "Arild Andersen / Paolo Vinaccia / Tommy Smith: Mira" reviewed by John Kelman
