Taylor Ho Bynum: Enter the PlusTet
by Troy Collins
Taylor Ho Bynum continues to delve into the endless possibilities of large ensemble writing on Enter the PlusTet, the debut of his newest band of the same name. Following in the footsteps of Navigation, his ambitious multi-format sextet and septet recording (Firehouse 12, 2012), this lean set finds the vanguard cornetist more than doubling the size ...
An Evil Clown and a Leap of Faith
by Karl Ackermann
"I don't have a half-speed for music, if I do it, I'm all in..."--PEK If the Evil Clown record label is prolific on a per capita basis, then its founder is exponentially more inexhaustible. David Peck (aka PEK) founded the label--at first, unbranded--and its roots date back a little more than twenty years ...
Ron Stabinsky: Free for One
by AAJ Staff
Nome decisamente poco familiare dalle nostre parti quello del pianista di Philadelphia Ron Stabinsky. Componente da un po' di tempo degli irriverenti Mostly Other People Do the Killing (con i quali lo abbiamo ascoltato dal vivo a Saalfelden nel 2015, una prestazione davvero pazzesca), il musicista ha al suo attivo anche collaborazioni con Peter ...
Three New Releases from Peter Kuhn
by Dave Wayne
Clarinetist Peter Kuhn came up in the 1970s.

So, one hand and a finger. Still associated with Benny Goodman, Dixieland and Swing, the clarinet was ...
Stephen Haynes: Pomegranate
by Neri Pollastri
Dedicato alla memoria di Bill Dixon, che gli fu maestro, questo disco di Stephen Haynes è un piccolo gioiello di nitidezza e coerenza, pur mettendo in scena una moderna musica free condotta da musicisti che certo non si sottraggono ad affrontare la complessità e magmaticità di questo genere. Il lavoro, di circa un'ora, si ...
Dominic Duval: Follow Your Melody
by Maxim Micheliov
In memory of Dominic Duval: 1945-2016. This article was first published in October 2010. Bassist Dominic Duval is a mystery to many—even to those interested in free music. Seemingly emerging out of nowhere in the mid-1990s, over the course of 15 years he has built a formidable discography, firmly establishing him as one of ...
The Brooklyn Express: No Time Left!
by Alberto Bazzurro
Registrato a Brooklyn nel giugno 2015, questo nuovo lavoro della Premiata Ditta Cavallanti/Tononi non tradisce neanche stavolta le attese, anzi rinverdisce atmosfere e -diciamolo pure -opulenze che la crisi globale in cui ci stiamo dibattendo ha finito spesso per mettere in un angolo (proprio per un fatto di dispiegamento di mezzi e forze). ...
