Barry Guy: Ploughs into Swordshares, Part 1-3
by Duncan Heining
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 Edgar Varèse's defiant statement in the face of public and critical indifference -"The present day composer refuses to die"—could so easily apply to composer-bassist Barry Guy. He has earned over the years a deep and lasting respect from certain fans and critics, though more so in ...
BenQ treVolo: Wireless Bluetooth Portable Electrostatic Speaker
by Dan Bilawsky
It would be wrong to say that there's a burgeoning Bluetooth speaker market. That ship has sailed, and at this point, the technology is omnipresent. It seems like every company in the sound game has multiple models to offer, catering to nearly every listener demographic. But that doesn't mean there aren't developments to be found in ...
Ethnic Heritage Ensemble at The Center for New Music
by Harry S. Pariser
Ethnic Heritage Ensemble Center for New Music San Francisco, CA February 15, 2016 San Francisco's Tenderloin District is a down-and-out area which wags have christened “Twitterloin," (owing to the proximity of Twitter and other tax companies given tax subsidies to erect their palatial edifices in this culturally diverse neighborhood). And the ...
Rita Marcotulli, Peter Erskine, Palle Danielsson: Trio M/E/D
by Neri Pollastri
Questo disco live documenta la tournée fatta nel 2014 in trio da Rita Marcotulli, Palle Danielsson e Peter Erskine, antichi compagni di avventura (con il contrabbassista svedese la pianista romana registrò nel lontano 1993 il primo disco a proprio nome, lo splendido Night Caller) già avevano registrato un disco (uscito per la collana dell'Espresso) nel 2006. ...
Bill Frisell: When You Wish Upon a Star
by John Kelman
While jazz and interpretation are hardly strange bedfellows, few musicians have managed to be both as deeply reverent to his source music and profoundly personal and in his approach as guitarist Bill Frisell. That's not to suggest his re-imaginings of other composers' works have been anything remotely approaching predictable; as early as his first “covers" record, ...
Arancio, nero e nostalgia: tempo di ristampe in casa Impulse!
by Luca Canini
Piovono ristampe in casa Impulse!. Un diluvio benedetto a tinte arancionere che riporta sugli scaffali dei negozi classicissimi e rarità a prezzi stracciati. Non il massimo l'operazione dal punto di vista filologico: grafica discutibile, copertine originali incrociate grossolanamente, rimasterizzazione discreta ma non eccelsa, note riprodotte in miniatura e in alcuni casi praticamente illeggibili; ma il rapporto ...
I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Marta Sanchez
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Jaki Byard --The Last from Lennie's (Prestige--2003). Ho ascoltato spesso Jaki Byard durante l'ultimo anno. Ora sto indirizzando la mia attenzione su questo disco con Joe Farrell. La versione di “After You've Gone," suonata in trio è sorprendente. Subito dopo l'esposizione della melodia piano, basso e batteria eseguono dei soli. Lo stride di Jaki ...
Paul Bley: 1932-2016

Gianni Marinucci: Live @ Bennett's Lane
by Nicholas F. Mondello
Those aware will tell you that to listen to Gianni Marinucci's tonal expressions is to hear poetry of the heart. It is no different here with Live @ Bennett's Lane. From the first few pitches on this vividly unique performance--vulnerable, yet filled with emotional depth--to the joyous last few, the Australian trumpeter and his sidekicks, Colin ...
