Boris Savoldelli: Biocosmopolitan

Read "Biocosmopolitan" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


The polyphonic vocal expertise of Italian artist Boris Savoldelli alters implications for the proverbial one-man band format. Although he receives assistance from revered session bassist/solo artist Jimmy Haslip, and some additional help from trumpeter Paolo Fresu--both appearing on selected tracks--it is Savoldelli who propagates the mesmeric performances. The vocalist uses electronics and voice overlays, ...

Boris Savoldelli: Biocosmopolitan

Read "Biocosmopolitan" reviewed by Mark Redlefsen


What a contrast Boris Savoldelli's Biocosmopolitan is to the vocalist's predecessor, Protoplasmic (MoonJune Records, 2009), which featured guitarist Elliot Sharp as his chief collaborator. While Protoplasmic was a brave dive into the experimental, Biocosmopolitan is a bright, infectious and singable work. The right balance of passion, delivery, and technology come together for 16 enjoyable tracks with ...

Read "Protoplasmic" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


La voce ruvida come cartavetrata di Boris Salvodelli si incontra/scontra con la chitarra rugosa e sulfurea di Elliott Sharp, uno degli artisti di punta dell'avanguardia newyorkese. Nell'occasione si sprigionano nell'aria scintille scoppiettanti di energia liberata, bagliori dai colori inimmaginabili, scie permanenti di luminescenza luciferina che lasciano una traccia molto netta nel panorama odierno della musica sperimentale. ...

Boris Savoldelli / Elliott Sharp: Protoplasmic

Read "Protoplasmic" reviewed by Nic Jones


Boris Savoldelli doesn't even occupy the same rarefied territory as Phil Minton when it comes to free vocalizing. Instead, he carves out his own niche through his use of various electronic manipulations. However, it's guitarist Elliott Sharp's input that makes all the difference on Protoplasmic. “Prelude To Biocosmo Pt. One" could almost be a comment on ...

Boris Savoldelli / Elliott Sharp: Protoplasmic

Read "Protoplasmic" reviewed by John Kelman


In the realm of free improvisation and even more structured pursuits, the limits of the human voice are being tested and expanded more than ever before by artists including Norwegians Sidsel Endresen and her groundbreaking One (Sofa, 2007), and Maja Ratkje with her equally innovative River Mouth Echoes (Tzadik, 2008). Italian singer Boris Savoldelli may have ...
