Enrico Pieranunzi & Paul Motian: Doorways
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
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?
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 ...
Enrico Pieranunzi: Fellini Jazz
by Mark Corroto
The elegance that is Fellini Jazz serves as a tribute to both the great director and this assembly of musicians.

Antonio Faraò: Far Out
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
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
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 ...
