Uri Caine: gli ultimi progetti
by Angelo Leonardi
Gli ultimi due album di Uri Caine confermano la sua statura di musicista poliedrico e inclassificabile. Il pianista di Filadelfia spazia da sempre tra scuole e generi con disincanto e spirito critico ed è uno dei rari compositori e interpreti d'oggi che esprime costante originalità. In questi due dischi, autoprodotti, non abbiamo sorprese stilistiche, ...

Memories in Motian
by Zeno De Rossi
Poco dopo aver appreso la triste notizia della morte di Paul Motian, avvenuta il 22 novembre 2011, ho sentito la forte esigenza di ri-tuffarmi in profondità nella sua musica. In seguito, dopo aver letto un toccante scritto di Ellery Eskelin (pubblicato sul suo sito e riportato qui di seguito), pensai che sarebbe stato ...
Jazz in the Catskills
As a native son of Woodstock NY, best known to many over the past five decades as the namesake of a rock music festival that was held 60 miles away as the crows fly, an announcement this week came as welcome news. A Woodstock Jazz Festival is scheduled the evening of October 4 at the Bearsville ...
David Binney: Anacapa

Memories in Motian
by Zeno De Rossi
Soon after hearing about Paul Motian's passing (November 22, 2011) I felt the urge to delve (again) into his music.

Uri Caine Trio: Siren
by Dan Bilawsky
Pianist Uri Caine holds a unique distinction, known the world over as a stellar jazz pianist, but a critics' darling for his genre-blind reworkings of classical music. His takes on the work of Gustav Mahler, Johann Sebastian Bach, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Richard Wagner have become modern classics which straddle several musical worlds, but Caine's is ...
Uri Caine Trio: Siren
by Troy Collins
Siren is the first studio recording to feature pianist Uri Caine leading a traditional acoustic trio since 1998's Blue Wail (Winter & Winter). Since then, most of Caine's albums have alternated between radical reinterpretations of the work of revered classical composers like Beethoven, Mozart and Schummann, and the heavily amplified funk excursions of his Bedrock trio ...
