Logan Hone: Logan Hone's Similar Fashion
by Vincenzo Roggero
Logan Hone, segnatevi questo nome. Viso imberbe, occhiali da primo della classe e tante idee per la testa. Suona il sax e non solo--clarinetto basso, chitarra, banjo, diavolerie elettroniche, percussioni sono gli altri gingilli con i quali si diletta--ma soprattutto scrive musica. Per i suoi svariati gruppi, per il cinema con i Giant Frame, per opere ...
Mose Allison: American Legend Live in California
by Alberto Bazzurro
Che dire di questo live del 2006, quando il suo protagonista viaggiava verso gli ottanta (li avrebbe compiuti di lì a un anno, l'11 novembre 2007)? Poco e male, viene spontaneo affermare. Mose Allison ha fior di estimatori, per carità, che evidentemente sono riusciti a trovare nel suo canto sdolcinato e privo di qualunque tipo di ...
New Zion w/ Cyro Baptista: Sunshine Seas
by Mark Corroto
The third release by Jamie Saft's New Zion Trio expands the concepts he launched with his previous efforts, Fight Against Babylon (Veal Records, 2011), and Chaliwa (Veal Records, 2013). His reggae/dub-meets-piano trio explorations expand with the inclusion of Brazilian percussionist Cyro Baptista. This rhythm trance music casts a much larger net, one of universal spirituality, beyond physical matter ...
Kirk MacDonald: Symmetry
by Edward Blanco
It is no secret that Canada is the home of some of the finest jazz musicins in the world and Toronto-based saxophonist Kirk MacDonald, a long-time active educator, is one of those established stars and veteran of the Canadian jazz scene. He has appeared on over fifty albums as both a sideman and leader and Symmetry, ...
Shauli Einav Quartet: Beam Me Up
by Dave Wayne
Beam Me Up is Shauli Einav's fifth album as a leader, but his first as a new father. This is worth mentioning because jazz is, as we all know, something that is lived. How could such a momentous change not manifest itself in one's music? Here, it's quite evident though nothing about the album itself speaks ...
Tim Garland: One
by Roger Farbey
Tim Garland is one of the U.K's most talented reedsmen. He's recorded several albums with Chick Corea including Originations and The Vigil plus orchestral works, The Mystery and The Continents. With virtuoso percussionist Bill Bruford, he recorded Earthworks Underground Orchestra. He's also recorded numerous albums under his own name and with Llamas and Acoustic Triangle. This ...
Linus + Skarbø / Leroux: Linus + Skarbø / Leroux
by Dave Wayne
In the seven years since its inception, El Negocito Records, based in Ghent, Belgium, has established itself as one of the most adventurous and far-ranging independent labels on the European new music scene. The phrase “new music" is operative here because the label concentrates on improvisation in all of its musical guises. There are modern jazz ...
Hugh Coltman: Shadows - Songs of Nat King Cole
by Angelo Leonardi
Quali percorsi conducono un affermato cantante pop a trasformarsi in jazz crooner, secondo i classici modelli di Frank Sinatra, Mel Tormè, Tony Bennett o Nat King Cole? La biografia dell'inglese Hugh Coltman ci dà una risposta, che nel caso specifico connette la casualità di un incontro col pianista belga Eric Legnini ed eventi ...
Ben Monder: Amorphae
by Mario Calvitti
Ben Monder è un chitarrista difficile da catalogare, per via di uno stile che concede poco o nulla alla tradizione, e una ricerca su suoni e timbri che, pur se talvolta lo avvicina a Bill Frisell, è portata avanti in una maniera personale e originale che lo distingue da altri sperimentatori come David Torn. Il suo ...
Twenty One 4Tet: Live At Zaal 100
by Mark Corroto
I'm assuming that the Twenty One 4Tet recording Live At Zaal was conceived as a one-off deal, with Portuguese trumpeter Luís Vicente visiting Amsterdam-based players John Dikeman, Wilbert De Joode and Onno Govaert. This concert, from September 2015, finds Vicente combining his impressive craftsmanship with three like-minded players. Then again, it might be just ...
