Noël Akchoté, Jean-Marc Foussat and Roger Turner: Acid Rain

Read "Acid Rain" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


This free improvised meeting between prolific French guitarist Noël Akchoté and analog synthesizer wizard Jean-Marc Foussat, and British drummer Roger Turner is unique, and not just because of these experienced improvisers' breadth of the musical language. The trio's collective sound is a multilayered, reflecting on progressive rock in its early experimental days, muscular fusion showoffs and ...

Dennis González Yells At Eels – Alvin Fielder: Resurrection and Life

Read "Resurrection and Life" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Inciso fra il giugno 2010 e il settembre 2001, questo lavoro vede affiancato il gruppo del trombettista texano Dennis González (comprensivo dei suoi figli Aaron, bassista, e Stefan, percussionista) col veterano batterista Alvin Fielder, classe 1935, membro fondatore dell'AACM.

Szilard Mezei Wind Quartet: Innen

Read "Innen" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Se è vero che il jazz è una musica di sintesi, che ha come tratto essenziale la creatività individuale e collettiva, questo ne è un magnifico esempio, pur con una forma molto vicina alla classica contemporanea (intrisa d'inflessioni folk dell'area serba e ungherese).

Stone Quartet: Live at Vision Festival

Read "Live at Vision Festival" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


Live at Vision Festival--only the second by this master quartet, recorded four years after the self-titled DMG/ARC 2008 debut--is an exemplary document of free-improvisation. It's free-flowing, full of musical ideas, unique dynamics with a cohesive narrative and, as AAJ colleague John Sharpe wrote in his liner notes, “everyone's ego subsumed to the needs of the music." ...
