Jakob Baekgaard's Best Releases Of 2016
by Jakob Baekgaard
The world seems more uncertain than ever before, but in times of uncertainty, music provides comfort and a hope that it is actually possible to communicate across borders, whether they be physical or psychological. Among the releases that caught my attention this year, the one that meant most to me by far is ...
Charlie Haden Liberation Music Orchestra: Time / Life
by Giuseppe Segala
Due anni dopo la scomparsa di Charlie Haden si pubblica questo ultimo documento della sua Liberation Music Orchestra, un lavoro che il compianto contrabbassista progettò ma che non ebbe modo di portare a compiuta realizzazione. Vessillo del suo impegno civile e umano, l'orchestra era nata nel 1969 raccogliendo una pletora di musicisti straordinari, molti dei quali ...
Beekman: Vol. 02
by Dave Wayne
Beekman is a super-tight collective quartet whose members hail from three (count 'em) different continents. Pianist Yago Vazquez is from Spain, reedman Kyle Nasser is an American, and the entire rhythm section--bassist Pablo Menares and drummer Rodrigo Recabarren--hails from Chile. Their prosaically-titled sophomore album, Vol. 02, is more-or-less in the same brainy-but-chill modern jazz style as ...

Eppure guida questa piccola orchestra da un ventennio, con strumentisti prestigiosi come Jeff Ballard, Ben Monder, Miguel Zenon, Chris Cheek. Nato nel 1969 a Buenos Aires, ...
Chris Cheek: Presents Saturday Songs
by Vincenzo Roggero
Il nome di Chris Cheek ricorre in più di ottanta album a conferma del suo riconosciuto ruolo di “musician for musicians." I dischi da leader sono in netta minoranza e la sua ultima registrazione in questa veste risale al lontano 2005 (Blues Cruise -Fresh Sound New Talent). Peccato perché le sue doti di band leader, di ...
Chris Cheek: Saturday Songs
by Jakob Baekgaard
The idea that jazz has to renew itself sometimes results in rather pretentious and purely intellectual experiments with form, but it is possible to play inventive and intellectually stimulating music without losing a sense of fun and inclusive curiosity. Saxophonist Chris Cheek is the proof. Cheek comes with a refreshingly unprejudiced approach to ...
