Ivo Perelman: Suite for Helen F.
by Jeff Stockton
You may have heard that the compact disc is dying, but you wouldn’t know it from this prodigious 2-CD set of over 100 minutes of relentless saxophonic stress-testing and rhythmic sensory overload. From his debut in 1989 through the late ‘90s, Ivo Perelman was wildly prolific and exhaustively documented, with more than 20 recordings appearing on ...
Ivo Perelman Double Trio: Suite for Helen F.
by John Kelman
Free jazz can be a dicey thing. When one is literally pulling everything out of the ether, one runs the risk of creating work that may have visceral impact but has little in the way of a sense of inner logic and inner construction. For fifteen years or so, tenor saxophonist Ivo Perelman has almost exclusively ...
Ivo Perelman Double Trio: Suite for Helen F.
by Dan McClenaghan
My initial encounter with the opening cut of Suite for Helen evoked images of a man blowing saxophone with a nest of small stinging insects busy swarming inside his pants. To carry the image further, this man, though painfully beset, is resolute in a singular pursuit of his sonic mission—blowing the guts and maybe even the ...
Borah Bergman & Thomas Chapin: Toronto 1997: A Suite for Thomas Chapin
by Javier AQ Ortiz
Death creeps upon us all. Thomas Chapin knew that rather well when in 1997 he appeared at Toronto's Du Maurier Downtown Jazz Festival with Borah Bergman. Dying on stage of leukemia, Chapin exhaled massively fractious and powerful liveliness from reeds and flute nonetheless. There are numerous struggles, limitations and even some clear misses in his performance; ...
Charlie Kohlhase Quintet: Play Free Or Die
by AAJ Staff
Boston's improv scene is fueled by an underground network of musicians (hooked up to an internet mailing list), major academic centers ( Berklee and the New England Conservatory), indie record outlets (including the literally subterranean Twisted Village), and an army of open-minded listeners. If you only went to the two big jazz clubs--Scullers and the Regattabar--you'd ...

Charlie Kohlhase Quintet: Play Free or Die
by Dan McClenaghan
Saxophonist Charlie Kohlhase is perhaps best known for holding down the baritone sax chair in the Boston area's under-appreciated ten man Either/Orchestra. Working now with a pianoless quintet, he's hooked up with Boxholder Records for a live double CD, Play Free or Die. A live one indeed. It's an energized set, something akin to an Ornette ...
