Influenzata da Norma Winstone e Joni Mitchell, la Wallfisch fa venire in mente le collaborazioni della Winstone con Jimmy Rowles o Fred Hersch. La sua cifra espressiva è ...

Erroll Garner: Erroll Garner: The Complete Concert By the Sea
by David Rickert
Erroll Garner's Concert by the Sea was a huge hit when it was released in 1956 and became one of the few jazz records that everyone seemed to own. One listen is all it takes to understand the wide appeal of this live date from the Sunset Center in Carmel, California. Garner, the happiest and most ...
Luis Munoz: Voz
by Dan Bilawsky
There's selfless, and then there's really selfless. This vocal-centric album of original compositions written and arranged by drummer Luis Muñoz falls into the latter category. Instead of using this as a platform to promote his own playing, which wouldn't necessarily be frowned upon considering the fact that it's his album, Muñoz's contributions on the performance end--drums, ...
Rodrigo Amado: This Is Our Language
by John Sharpe
The title of Portuguese saxophonist Rodrigo Amado's latest offering pays unmistakable homage to the late Ornette Coleman. This Is Our Music (Atlantic, 1961) constituted one of Ornette's uncompromising early manifestos, while In All Languages (Caravan of Dreams, 1987) served to reveal both the differences and the similarities between his classic quartet and the electric Prime Time ...

Yaron Herman: Everyday
by Vincenzo Roggero
È tutt'altro che noioso, e questo è un bel biglietto da visita per un duo piano/batteria. Non è un omaggio a chicchessia né la solita passerella di standard più o meno noti, a meno che si vogliano considerare tali “Retrograde" di James Blake e “Prelude n° 4, Opus 74" di Alexander Scriabin. E non rivela nessun ...

by Luca Muchetti
Nove brani per raccontare il proprio mondo musicale, per la prima volta da titolare.

Squakk: Willisau & Berlin
by John Sharpe
Four Germans combine for a set that recalls some of the classic Anthony Braxton quartet sides with George Lewis or Ray Anderson from the 1970s. Common ground abounds in their free-bop structures and the delightful interplay as between reeds and trombone as they slip in and out of both tunes and time. There are also other ...
