Sun Ra: Strange Strings
by Troy Collins
Emblematic of its title, this is one of the most unusual albums in the vast discography of visionary bandleader Sun Ra. In league with such classics as Heliocentric Worlds (ESP, 1965), The Magic City (Evidence, 1965) and Atlantis (Evidence, 1967), this obscure session focuses on similarly intense long-form improvisations. Originally recorded in 1966, Strange Strings is ...
Gallio, Voerkel & Frey: Tiegel
by AAJ Italy Staff
Non è tra i nomi più famosi della scena impro-jazz svizzera quello del sassofonista Christoph Gallio, ma la sua storia sonora è stata spesso costellata di ottime sinergie: emerso alla fine degli Settanta, Gallio ha collaborato con Günter Müller e Irène Schweizer, ma soprattutto è stato allievo di Steve Lacy a Parigi e ha successivamente suonato ...
Fred Lonberg-Holm Trio: Terminal Valentine
by Troy Collins
The highly expressive cello is a cornerstone of the western classical canon, yet it remains a marginalized instrument in the jazz world. Chicago-based cellist Fred Lonberg-Holm sits atop a growing list of contemporary innovators playing what is still classified as a “miscellaneous" instrument by many mainstream jazz publications. Terminal Valentine is Lonberg-Holm's third album ...
Steve Lacy Quintet: Esteem
by AAJ Italy Staff
A giugno sono tre anni che Steve Lacy ci ha lasciati. Un vuoto davvero incolmabile, non solo affettivamente, ma anche e soprattutto dal punto di vista del rigore e della personalità della visione musicale. Una visione cui lo stesso sopranista dedicava grande importanza e rispetto, ad esempio avendo registrato privatamente sin dagli anni Settanta moltissimi concerti, ...
Zu with Mats Gustafsson: How To Raise An Ox
by Andrey Henkin
Online, there is a website called the “Metal Family Tree . Jazz, though in existence for much longer, has resisted being broken into such small edible pieces. If, though, we take inspiration (and terminology) from the Metal Family Tree, the Italian trio Zu could easily be classified as Sludge Doom, a more abrasive version of the ...
Powerhouse Sound: Oslo / Chicago: Breaks
by Troy Collins
This debut album by Ken Vandermark's aptly coined Powerhouse Sound arrives with a visceral one-two punch. More primal than his previous forays into rock and popular music forms, the ensemble rivals even his seminal quartet recordings from the early 1990s. Vandermark conceived Powerhouse Sound in the summer of 2005 to explore composition focusing on ...
Zu & Nobukazu Takemura: Identification With The Enemy: A Key To The Underworld
by Troy Collins
The Italian power trio Zu has made quite a career out of high-profile guest artist collaborations. Joint albums with Eugene Chadbourne, Ken Vandermark, Fred Lonberg-Holm and Mats Gustafsson have bolstered the group's impressive discography in the past few years. Identification With The Enemy is a different sort of meeting for the flexible trio, which joins forces ...
The Vandermark 5: A Discontinuous Line
by Nic Jones
Ken Vandermark could never be accused of wasting time, and while this particular documentation of his music lacks the rarefied air of his work with the SIA trio from earlier in 2006, this programme comes from an aesthetically different place. Vandermark's artistry is far from mono-dimensional. Also, the dynamics of the V5 are of a radically ...
