Enrico Pieranunzi & Paul Motian: Doorways

Read "Doorways" reviewed by Chris May

by Chris May

Another landmark album in the long and distinguished careers of Enrico Pieranunzi and Paul Motian, Doorways is one hour of sumptuous and transcendentally beautiful music fashioned with the simplest tools--a piano and a drum kit (and on three tracks only, a saxophone). Simultaneously lyrical and percussive, rhapsodic and vigorous, it speaks equally to the emotions and ...

Enrico Pieranunzi: FelliniJazz

Read "FelliniJazz" reviewed by AAJ Staff

by AAJ Staff

While created in order to serve a greater vehicle, soundtrack music often takes a life of its own. Such is the case with Nino Rota's compositions for Italian director Federico Fellini's classic films, collected, arranged, and reinterpreted on FelliniJazz by pianist Enrico Pieranunzi. When taken out of the context of the (mostly) '50s movies from which ...

Kenny Wheeler & John Taylor: Where Do We Go From Here?

Read "Where Do We Go From Here?" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Over the past thirty years, pianist John Taylor has clearly been trumpeter Kenny Wheeler's accompanist of choice. Cerebral yet quietly passionate, intuitive and supportive, with a musical personality rooted in Bill Evans that has, nevertheless, long since evolved beyond comparative considerations, Taylor's ability to get inside Wheeler's often melancholic compositions is without equal. From big band ...

Antonio Faraò: Far Out

Read "Far Out" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

The joyous occasion of this new disc by Italian pianist Antonio Faraò is unfortunately overshadowed by the tragic death late last year of saxophonist Bob Berg, his sideman for this recording. Berg, whose horn accented the bands of Horace Silver, Cedar Walton, and 1980s bands of Miles Davis, made his biggest splash with jazz/rock guitarist Mike ...

Pieranunzi/Johnson/Baron: Play Morricone

Read "Play Morricone" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

The trio reunion of Enrico Pieranunzi, Marc Johnson, and Joey Baron to play the music of film composer Ennio Morricone serves as a very modern reminder of pianist Bill Evans' classic trio. Pieranunzi, certainly a follower of the “Evans sound,” tosses in a healthy dose of Wynton Kelly for good measure. His prior ...

Giovanni Tommaso Quintet: Secondo Tempo

Read "Secondo Tempo" reviewed by Javier AQ Ortiz

by Javier AQ Ortiz

Giovanni Tommaso won the 2001-2002 Jazziz Critic's Picks with La Dolce Vita and such a recognition led to the “Second Part," as the title means, under review here. Even so, this is no haphazardly produced or executed sequel. Secondo Tempo is Italian cinematic soundtracks, of varying fame, reinterpreted within the jazz tenor range ...
