Catherine Russell, Sean Mason: My Ideal
by Angelo Leonardi
Un album come questo può nascere solo dall'amore per i tesori nascosti del songbook statunitense. E l'amore vero, si sa, non fa calcoli. Sulla carta è ampiamente controcorrente (o se preferite demodé) e quindi fuori mercato per la sua scelta di escludere quasi completamente brani in grado di sollecitare la memoria del pubblico. L'unico ...

The Unlikely Story of Cannonball Adderley's Rise to the Top
by Alan Bryson
For me, the most gripping music stories are the tales of “overnight sensations." In the jazz sphere, we have our share. There is the story of an eighteen-year-old Billie Holiday, discovered by producer John Hammond while she was a hostess in a Harlem club. There is the tale of a seventeen-year-old Ella Fitzgerald, whose triumphant debut ...
Hal Galper: Adventures In The Zone
by Paul Rauch
This article was first published on All About Jazz on October 20, 2020. The career of Hal Galper has earned the pianist acclaim as both a performer and educator. Perhaps most importantly, it has drawn attention to his contributions to the music as a true innovator. While other pianists of his era gained more ...
Ornette Coleman's and Horace Silver's "Lonely Woman" — A Disambiguation
by Artur Moral
Reality is filled with confusion and misunderstandings; some are suggestive or creative, while others are disappointing or, worse, malicious. The jazz world is no stranger to the first type: specific compositions are often confused or misidentified as if they were the same. Usually, this happens because of similar melodies or titles that are sometimes identical. This ...
Kevin Goss: Gratitude
by Kevin Goss
As I approached the “big five-oh," I started doing some thinking about how much I have to be grateful for: a supportive family, meaningful friendships, and music. I wasn't supposed to make it to the “big oh-five," but I beat the odds and, in the years since, it is my family, friends, and music that have ...
Gerry Mulligan: Nocturne
by Alberto Bazzurro
Già edito nel 2005 con un brano in meno (il conclusivo “Rico Apollo"), questo doppio live colto in quel di Bologna nell'aprile 1992 ci tramanda un Gerry Mulligan in ragguardevole forma, lui come del resto il trio che lo affianca, capeggiato (se possiamo dire così) da un pianista dell'affidabilità di Harold Danko. Tredici ...
Gerry Mulligan: Nocturne
by Jack Kenny
This album might go a small way to setting a record straight. Gerry Mulligan has often been underrated. Despite the critical acclaim and historical significance later attributed to Miles Davis for his groundbreaking work on the Birth of the Cool sessions, a closer examination of the repertoire reveals the profound influence of Mulligan's writing. It was ...
John Engels Just Turned 90, But Who’s Counting?
by Joan Gannij
What do you give a man for his 90th birthday, who has everything in terms of chops, contentment, experience, and energy? How about a special edition of an Edison Prize, combined with a birthday tribute concert. Amsterdam's Bimhuis was packed to standing room, filled with friends, family, musicians and music lovers. This was no ordinary birthday ...
Matthias Van den Brande: Fields of Color
by Artur Moral
A non-harmonic quartet raises unexpected questions Can an essentially orthodox musical effort accurately reflect the most unconventional art? Is a concept album more attractive than others, simply by being one? Can a written review meaningfully convey insights about a score inspired by the creations of painter Mark Rothko, whose canvases, in turn, were conceived to express ...
