XL Target (KJ Dave Doran & Christy Doran): Nubtz Remix

by AAJ Italy Staff
February 15, 2012

I fratelli Doran, irlandesi di nascita ma trapiantati in Svizzera ormai da una vita, suonano assieme in questo bel progetto registrato interamente dal vivo, non perché devono rimarcare il loro legame biologico, ma semplicemente perché sentono la musica allo stesso modo, seppure da punti di vista influenzati dalla loro diversa età. Una vita che nel loro ...

Ray Anderson / Han Bennink / Christy Doran: A B D

Evan Parker / Urs Leimgruber: Twine

by Mark Corroto
August 2, 2010

Twine, from saxophonists Evan Parker and Urs Leimgruber, is perhaps named for two strands twisted together to make a much stronger thread. The subtitle, however, might just be two saxophonists separated at birth.Most people familiar with the legendary Parker know his unique sound and reign as the sovereign of freely improvised tenor and soprano ...

by Nic Jones
May 22, 2010

by AAJ Italy Staff
May 7, 2010

Sei anni dopo il primo Triangulation, sempre edito su Leo, eccone il seguito, col trio originario allargato al vocalista svizzero Bruno Amstad, a comporre un puzzle ancor più articolato con Doran e Brennan, entrambi dublinesi di nascita ma svizzeri d'adozione, e il francese (del Languedoc) Patrice Héral. Il nuovo innesto non è di poco conto: Amstad ...
