Alice Coltrane: Live At The Berkeley Community Theater 1972
by Chris May
Conventional belief holds that Alice Coltrane was the dreamy, mellifluous partner in John Coltrane's late period, out-there sonic explorations. The truth is otherwise, as attentive listening to the recordings the two Coltranes made together in 1966 and 1967 demonstrates. The misapprehension stems from the gentler albums Alice made for Impulse in the first few years following ...
Daniele Sepe: The Cat with the Hat
by Neri Pollastri
Dopo le divertenti e divertite avventure di Capitan Capitone e della sua ciurma, Daniele Sepe torna al jazz più proprio e lo fa con un giusto omaggio a uno dei suoi ispiratori: Gato Barbieri, scomparso tre anni fa e raramente ricordato quanto avrebbe meritato. Forse, come accenna lo stesso Sepe, per il fatto di essersi un ...
Ten Artists: June 2019
by C. Michael Bailey
Polly Gibbons All I Can Do Resonance Records 2019 Polly Gibbons's 2017 Resonance release, Is It Me...? was positively received by All About Jazz and other outlets when it appeared. That recording featured a crack trio augmented with soloists, establishing Gibbons as a sensitive yet muscular interpreter of the American ...
Dave Morgan: Blue Is More Than a Color
by Jack Bowers
If nothing else, bassist-composer Dave Morgan's album, Blue Is More Than a Color, affirms that big-band jazz is alive and well in the Akron, Ohio, area. Perhaps more than coincidentally, Morgan's large and well-drilled ensemble plies its trade on a regular basis at Akron's Blu Jazz Club whose patrons may presumably hear previews of the seven ...

Tiziano Tononi & The Ornettians: Forms and Sounds - Air Sculptures
by Neri Pollastri
Tiziano Tononi non è nuovo ai lavori dedicati all'esplorazione di grandi innovatori del jazz, e già nel decennio scorso una formazione con lo stesso nome di questa, Tiziano Tononi & The Ornettians, ma ben diversa nei componenti aveva firmato due album dedicati a Ornette Coleman, musicista che-come riconosce esplicitamente nelle note di questo CD—ha influenzato non ...
Bill Frisell | Thomas Morgan: Epistrophy
by John Kelman
When ECM Records released Small Town in 2017, beyond capturing the profound intimacy and musical ability to “finish each other's sentences" shared by the first recorded document of guitarist Bill Frisell and bassist Thomas Morgan in a duo setting, one of the biggest walk-aways was the hope that this would not be a one-off. Two years ...
Franco Ambrosetti: The Nearness Of You
by Angelo Leonardi
Il pregio di quest'album risiede nella ricercatezza dei suoi percorsi melodici, esaltati dal lirico flicorno di Franco Ambrosetti e dalle raffinate orchestrazioni di Massimo Nunzi e Gianni Ferrio. Il riferimento implicito è l'opera di Miles Davis con Gil Evans ma la cosa non sminuisce il fascino del lavoro che avvolge l'ascoltatore con la fragranza dei timbri ...
