Charles Pillow: Part 1 - Crossing the Divide between Jazz and Classical Repertoire
by Victor L. Schermer
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 While jazz began as a form of entertainment, it has evolved into a more serious musical genre. Its multiple roots in gospel, blues, popular, folk, Caribbean, African, and other world musics give it a complexity and richness tailor-made for extended musical explorations and through-composing. In addition, ...
Kate Schutt: No Love Lost
by AAJ Italy Staff
Nel mondo variegato del pop-jazz o si è Norah Jones o no. È lei il modello che molte vocalist imitano spregiudicatamente. Spesso si assiste ad un fiorire di clonazioni da far paura. Poi ci sono strade diverse, alternative. Partono sempre da un chiaro riferimento (il music-businness fa la sua parte), ma magari lo confondono con altre ...
Torben Waldorff: Afterburn
by Jerry D'Souza
Over the course of his recordings, Torben Waldorff has shown his skills as a composer in addition to his undoubted accomplishments as a guitarist. Waldorff wrote six of the tunes here, in addition to one each from composer/arranger Maria Schneider, drummer Jon Wikan and saxophonist Joel Miller. Waldorff and tenor saxophonist Donny McCaslin work ...
Kate Schutt: No Love Lost
by Eyal Hareuveni
The debut studio recording of American singer-songwriter/guitarist Kate Schutt combines old school gypsy jazz aesthetics and Schutt's wise, original words, persuasive melodies and economic arrangements. Schutt, who relocated to Guelph, Ontario and produced this fine recording, offers ten well-articulated and melodic song-stories, which cover different but never simple aspects of love. One bold cover that stands ...
Jon Gordon: Within Worlds
by AAJ Italy Staff
Che Jon Gordon fosse uno bravo l'avevamo sempre saputo. Dagli studi con Phil Woods al primo premio ottenuto al Monk Award, dai riconoscimenti di colleghi come Bobby Watson ai dischi con musicisti di tutto rispetto del calibro di Mark Turner e Tim Hagans. Purtroppo tutto questo non basta per essere nel catalogo di una major vista ...
Jon Gordon: Within Worlds
by Budd Kopman
Alto saxophonist Jon Gordon, despite having a discography going back to 1992, remains underappreciated as a leader. Hopefully, Within Worlds will correct that and introduce him to a larger audience. The album presents Gordon's distinct musical personality and thus has the feel of an integrated work, despite containing sessions ranging from 2002 to ...
Torben Waldorff: Afterburn
by Michael P. Gladstone
For his sophomore effort, Danish guitarist/composer Torben Waldorff unleashes a strong album which gives his listeners more of the same and then some. Waldorff, who is now based out of Malmo, Sweden, had previously enjoyed a well-received album of a live performance, Brilliance (ArtistShare, 2007). On this studio-made album, Waldorff stays with the same formula but ...
Torben Waldorff: Afterburn
by Troy Collins
Danish guitarist Torben Waldorff follows up his Artist Share debut, Brilliance: Live at the 55 Bar (2006) with Afterburn, a studio session featuring the same core group of New Yorkers featured on his previous release. Based in Denmark and Sweden, but educated in the States, Waldorff is a shining example of today's vibrant international jazz scene.
Cuong Vu: Vu-Tet
by AAJ Italy Staff
Questo nuovo lavoro del trombettista Cuong Vu parte in maniera decisamente misteriosa, con i timbri scuri e l’incedere lento, con il piglio della navigazione solitaria. Un viaggio sospeso dentro ad un B Movie di fantascienza ambientato nei territori polverosi di un pianeta bluastro che non è stato ancora scoperto. Al centro della scena sta l’elettronica con ...
Torben Waldorff: Afterburn
by Eyal Hareuveni
Danish guitarist/composer Torben Waldorff's fourth release, Afterburn, manages to unite European sensibilities with American post-bop vibes. Throughout this impressive recording Waldorff--now based in Malmo, Sweden--delivers sophisticated harmonies and an elaborate compositional architecture with a distinctive guitar sound owing more to Metheny, circa his ECM days of more than twenty years ago, than to Scofield. But Waldorff ...
