Michael Mantler: The Jazz Composer's Orchestra (Update)

Read "The Jazz Composer's Orchestra (Update)" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro


All'indomani dei suoi settant'anni, compiuti il 10 agosto 2013, Michael Mantler ha voluto farsi (e farci) un grande regalo: ha “occupato" per tre sere (30/31 agosto e 1 settembre) il Porgy & Bess di Vienna con una venticinquina di musicisti al seguito e ha ridato voce alle partiture, debitamente rivedute e corrette, che quarantacinque anni prima ...

Read "Corduroy" reviewed by Dave Wayne


I have to admit to suffering a bit of cognitive dissonance upon listening to David Ullmann's Corduroy.
